students of any race, color, national and/or ethnic origin to all the rights,
privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to
students at the school.
We

|
|
Absences
|
|
When
a student returns to school after having been absent the student MUST bring a note from home
explaining the reason for the absence. This note is required by Massachusetts
Law.
|
|
Attendance
|
|
It is important that students attend school regularly and arrive
your ON TIME. Parent/student cooperation regarding absence and tardiness is
imperative. Students who are ill should not attend school. Medical
appointments during school hours are discouraged. Family trips should
coincide with scheduled school vacations. Teachers are not responsible for
preparing work ahead of time for students who are absent because of vacation.
|
|
Bicycles
|
|
All
students who ride a bicycle to school must walk the bicycle in/out of the
school parking lot by way of the driveway between the church and the rectory.
|
|
Cell
Phone Usage
|
|
Cell
phones are permitted in school for the purpose of student/parent
communication after school when necessary. Students are not allowed to use cell phones during the school day.
Cell phones are collected in the classroom at the start of the day and placed
in a bin in the principal’s office. Students found with cell phones will have
them confiscated and they will be returned only to parents.
|
|
Communication
|
|
Calendars
containing important information and menus for the coming month are sent home
prior to each month. School communication envelopes are sent home every
Thursday. Parents should check the contents of these envelopes carefully to
keep updated on school happenings. Parents must also sign the envelope and
see that it is returned to school on the following day. If there is a tear
off slip at the bottom of any notice, please sign it and return it to the
classroom teacher the following day, as this is our only way of knowing that
you received the notice. A school newsletter is sent home periodically.
|
|
Computer
Program
|
|
St. Joseph School has a
comprehensive computer program, administered by a computer teacher. Students
in grades K-8 participate in this program and receive formal instruction
every week. The teacher utilizes and develops Internet materials in
conjunction with units being taught at individual grade levels across all
curriculum areas. In addition, grade appropriate software is used with a
strong emphasis on the development of keyboarding skills.
A
computer usage policy is sent home at the beginning of each school year that
explains appropriate computer use. The form must be signed and returned.
Students who do not return a signed usage policy form will not be allowed the
use of any computer. St. Joseph School has
purchased a program that blocks undesirable sites from the Internet. However,
each user must act responsibly and morally.
|
|
Policy
of Christian Behavior
|
|
As
teachers in a Catholic school, the St. Joseph faculty
firmly believes that the life and teaching of Jesus should be our guide in
fostering good character in our students. We believe in love of God, love of
self, and love for others. As a result, we are committed to helping our
students to recognize what is right, and to do what is right, and therefore,
we have developed the following policy of Christian behavior which will serve
as our code of conduct:
Members
of the St. Joseph School Community will
1.
treat each other with respect and kindness, look for the good in others, and
value their differences.
2.
respect all people in authority.
3.
be truthful and honest, and will take responsibility for their own actions.
4.
be tolerant of another’s opinion.
5.
resolve all conflicts in a peaceful manner.
6.
ensure that all are welcome in group activities.
7.
make new students and visitors feel welcome.
|
|
Consequences
of Policy Violations
|
|
First
Offense: Warning by teacher; reminder of policy
Second
Offense: Student meets with teacher to discuss policy and student’s behavior.
Parents notified of meeting.
Third
Offense: Meeting with parents and teacher.
Fourth
Offense: Meeting with parents, teacher and principal.
Fifth
Offense: Possible suspension by principal.
Sixth
Offense: Further action to be determined by principal and pastor.
SERIOUS
INFRACTIONS OF THE BEHAVIOR POLICY MAY BE REFERRED IMMEDIATELY TO THE
PRINCIPAL FOR APPROPRIATE DISCIPLINE, REGARDLESS OF THE NUMBER OF OFFENSES.
|
|
Emergency
Forms
|
|
An
emergency form is sent home with every student on the first day of school.
This form must be returned immediately. It contains the name and phone number
of an alternate contact in case of emergency, if the school is unable to
reach the parents.
For
the protection of your child, it is imperative that the office be alerted to
any change in this form. Valuable time can be lost in treating a child if we
are unable to reach a parent.
|
|
Emergency School Closings
|
|
Cancellation
of school takes place only under extraordinary circumstances such as extreme
weather conditions, equipment failure or public crises. School will not be
canceled during the day unless a significant safety risk has been created by
unusual circumstances.
In
the event of inclement weather, please listen to radio stations WBZ 1030 AM,
WHDH 850 AM or television WHDH Channel 7 for the announcement of Holbrook Public
School closings. St. Joseph School follows the
Holbrook Public Schools in such closings.
Please
do not call the school, rectory, convent, police or fire departments. Parents
are encouraged to use their own judgment during adverse weather conditions.
|
|
Extracurricular
Athletic Programs (Grades 5 - 8)
|
|
The students who have been selected as members of St. Joseph’s Athletic
teams and cheerleaders have a responsibility to represent their school with
pride. Their conduct in school, at practices and at games should reflect an
attitude of respect for other people and their property. Good sportsmanship
and team work should be evident.
The
following are guidelines of appropriate behavior:
- Students may
participate in sports if all academic subjects, effort and conduct
grades are satisfactory. Participants may be placed on probation if they
have had ONE unsatisfactory grade. The probation period is two weeks
long. A weekly progress check will be made and if no improvement is
seen, the student will be dismissed from the team.
- All participants
must abide by school rules. If students are referred to the principal
for a discipline problem, they may be suspended or removed from the team
at the discretion of the principal.
- Students may not
participate in athletics if they are unable to participate in regularly
scheduled physical education classes.
- Students may not
participate in any practices, games or meets if absent from school that
day, unless unusual circumstances exist, and unless approved by the
principal.
- If students are
unable to attend practice they should notify the coach with a reasonable
excuse.
The principal reserves the right to interpret the guidelines in
individual cases.
|
|
Field
Trips
|
|
Field
trips are provided to enhance student learning and thus are planned in
conjunction with the curriculum. Trip expenses are the responsibility of the
parents. Signed permission slips are required for the students to
participate. Parent chaperones are requested as needed.
On
most field trips jeans are not acceptable attire. The classroom teacher will
instruct students about clothing prior to the trip.
NOTE:
Field trips are privileges. Students can be denied participation if they fail
to meet academic or behavioral requirements.
|
|
Fire
Drills
|
|
Fire
drills at regular intervals are required by law and are an important safety
precaution. Students are instructed in the correct exit procedure by the
classroom teacher. Fire drills are scheduled and monitored by the Holbrook Fire Department.
|
|
Gum
Chewing
|
|
Because
it has been a major area of difficulty, GUM CHEWING IS NEVER PERMITTED IN
SCHOOL. It is also prohibited on all school property, on field trips, or
during any other school activity.
|
|
Fund
Raising
|
|
Tuition
alone does not cover the cost of educating each student in St. Joseph School. Fund
raising is a necessity in order to keep the tuition affordable and the school
operating. It is imperative that all families take part in the fundraisers,
and participation is, therefore, an enrollment requirement.
A
Calendar Drive is held in the fall. Every family is required to take TEN
calendars to sell or purchase at a cost of $10.00 per calendar. This is a
very important source of income for the school, and we depend on all families
to do their share.
In
the spring a Candy Sale is held, and again, every family is expected to
participate by selling or purchasing a box of 40 candies.
BINGO
is our most important fundraiser. Bingo is held in the school hall every
Friday evening and is run by parents. The early bird game begins at 6:45 pm.
Bingo is completely no smoking. Parents are required to work two hours of
bingo during an assigned month for each child enrolled in the school. Parents
may choose to pay an additional $300 per child in tuition in lieu of working
bingo. The Bingo phone number is (781) 767-4925.
All
students benefit from these fund-raisers, therefore, we expect the
cooperation and active support of all parents and students to ensure their
success. Those who do not wish to actively participate in the calendar or
candy drives are requested to make a cash donation to the school
proportionate to the income generated by the specific fund-raiser.
No money
should be collected in school by teachers or students for any other purpose
without permission from the principal.
|
|
Health
Service
|
|
If a
student becomes ill during the school day, arrangements may be made for the
child to go home. If we are unable to reach a parent, the person designated
on the emergency form will be contacted when it is deemed necessary to
release a student during school time.
For
purposes of safety and effective monitoring of medication, students are not
allowed to carry or self-administer any medication during the school day.
While
this procedure may in some way be an inconvenience for the parents or be
counter to the philosophy of encouraging a child to assume responsibility for
his/her own health, the need for administrative control in school has
stronger weight.
As a
general principle it is preferable that prescription medication not be
dispensed to children in school and therefore dosage schedules should be
adjusted accordingly. Since students are dismissed at 2:00 p.m. each day the second dosage of the
day can be given when the child arrives home.
Under
certain circumstances, when it is necessary for the child to take internal
medication during school hours, the nurse, principal or person designated by
them may administer the medication if the following requirements are met:
-parents
submit a written request to the school accompanied by a signature from the
attending physician indicating the frequency, dosage and the name of the
prescribed medication. Forms are available at the school office.
-parents
should deliver the medication to the school in the container labeled by the
physician or pharmacist.
NO
PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION WILL BE DISPENSED UNLESS THE ABOVE REQUIREMENTS HAVE
BEEN MET.
NO
OVER THE COUNTER MEDICATIONS WILL BE ADMINISTERED BY THE SCHOOL AT ANY TIME
If
parents wish a child to take aspirin, Tylenol, etc. during the day they must
come to the school and administer it to the child. Children should not carry
such medication on their persons. A note should be sent to the classroom
teacher requesting permission to use cough drops.
A
registered nurse is on duty several days per week. She performs such duties
as measuring, weighing, vision and hearing tests and scoliosis screening.
A
physician is provided for physicals for children in grades four and seven at
the request of parents.
|
|
Insurance
|
|
Insurance
is offered through the school each September. There is a “school time plan”
which covers school hours and extracurricular activities sponsored by the
school. Twenty-four hour coverage is also available. Parents who have no
other insurance are obligated to enroll in this plan. Those preferring
another insurance arrangement must have adequate coverage in case of accident
on school property.
|
|
Home-to-School
Responsibility
|
|
Students
must take responsibility for remembering to bring important items from home
such as gym clothes, homework, permission slips, etc. Students will not be
allowed to call home for any forgotten items, unless approved by the
principal.
Medication
may be left at the office.
If
you bring in your child’s lunch, please label it with the child’s name and
grade and leave it at the school office. No lunches from outside vendors such
as Burger King, Pizza Hut etc. are permitted.
BIRTHDAYS:
Birthdays will be celebrated by allowing students to dress down on their
birthday. Students with summer birthdays may choose a day during the school
year to celebrate their birthday (with permission from the teacher). Baked
goods or snacks of any kind are no longer permitted for birthday
celebrations.
|
|
Homework
|
|
The
amount of time spent on homework varies according to the age and the ability
of the students. Parents are urged to provide surroundings conducive to study
and to encourage their children to complete assignments on time. If a student
comes home regularly without any homework, parents should consult the
teacher.
The
following is the suggested amount of homework per grade.
Grades
K - 1 10 - 20 minutes
Grades
2 - 3 20 - 30 minutes
Grades
4 - 6 30 - 60 minutes
Grades
7 - 8 60 - 90 minutes
This
time includes reading, written assignments and study. Homework is the
responsibility of the student, but parents should ensure that children are
completing their assignments, and that the homework satisfies the
expectations of the teacher.
Parents
should check the homework posted on RenWeb, as well as the student daily
planner to ensure that all homework is complete.
|
|
Library
|
|
Each
class in the school is assigned a regular library period. Students may sign
out books and materials for a period of one week. Reference books are used
only in the library or in the classroom.
Students
are responsible for replacing or paying for any books that are lost, damaged
or defaced.
|
|
Lost
and Found
|
|
Lost
and found items can be found near the pay phone at the center of the
building. Children are reminded to look there first if they are missing an
article of clothing, a book bag or lunch box. Parents are free to stop in at
any time and check its contents.
Parents
are encouraged to label all clothing, especially items such as sweaters that
are removed during the day and, therefore, are frequently lost.
|
|
Lunch
Program
|
|
St. Joseph’s School
Lunch Program provides hot lunches prepared daily by the cafeteria staff.
Students are offered servings from four major food groups and the lunches
meet the daily nutritional requirements established by the federal
government. All students have the opportunity to purchase a hot lunch.
Children
of eligible families may receive a free or reduced lunch. On the first day of
school, students are notified about lunch and milk prices, and free/reduced
lunch eligibility forms are sent home with them. This information is kept
confidential.
No
fast food lunches such as Burger King, McDonald’s etc. are permitted.
Students are not allowed to bring soft drinks to school.
|
|
Lunch
Recess
|
|
The
students go outside after lunch unless it is raining or extremely cold.
Children should dress appropriately for the weather conditions, and should
anticipate outdoor recess.
Ordinarily
students play on the playground or in the front parking lot. They are not
allowed in the woods.
The
students are instructed in playground safety.
|
|
Music
Program
|
|
Students
in grades K-8 participate in a general music program once a week, and a
liturgical music program once a week. The classes are taught by a certified
music teacher.
|
|
Outside
School Activities
|
|
It
seems that in recent years we have experienced a growing number of families
planning pool parties and dances in individual homes as early as the third
and fourth grades.
The
school has no control over such private parties, but it is the unanimous
opinion of the faculty and administration that such events do more harm than
good. They may place young people in a boy/girl setting that children of this
age may not be prepared to handle. Students not invited to such parties are
often devastated and feel personally rejected.
For
these reasons and in hopes of curtailing such events, invitations to private
parties may not be sent home through the school.
|
|
Physical
Education Program
|
|
Physical
Education is provided once a week for students in grades K-8.
The
Physical Education curriculum contains activities in movement exploration,
rhythm and dance, gymnastics and team games. The primary objective of the
physical education program is to help students to recognize the benefits of
physical activity and the importance of developing good habits of physical
fitness.
All
students are required to attend and participate in all physical education
activities unless excused by the principal, doctor, school nurse, physical
education teacher, parent or guardian. A signed note indicating the reason
for non-participation must be sent to the school and approved by the
principal. A written parental excuse will be honored for one class period. If
a student’s absence exceeds more than three class periods, a medical excuse
must be obtained from a doctor. This note will be given to the physical
education teacher prior to the physical education class.
|
|
Publication
of Student Photographs
|
|
PARENTS MAY RESTRICT PUBLICATION OF STUDENT
PHOTOGRAPH OR IMAGE
During the year, we often take photographs of
students, parents, teachers, and school activities and may include these
pictures on school bulletin boards, in school publications, in local
newspapers, and on our web site. No names will be used on the
website. Instead all captions are generalized (for example: Grade 2 students
at their First Communion, the seventh grade performers at the talent show).
If you DO NOT want your child’s photo to appear
in these public places, please submit a signed request to the
school by October 1 each year.
This
policy shall not limit the right to publish photographs of any student
participating in school sports, school plays or concerts or other activities
in the public domain.
|
|
Religion
Program
|
|
All
students are required to complete the appropriate religion course for their
grade. Non-Catholic students are required to attend and to participate in
liturgical celebrations, opening prayers, religion classes and prayers services.
The
Religion program follows the Archdiocesan Curriculum Guidelines, and includes
the teaching of Catholic dogma, and the practice of private and communal
prayer.
|
|
Registration
|
|
Registration
for the new school year takes place during Catholic Schools week at the end
of January.
Students
from Pre-K are given first preference for admission to Kindergarten. Families
with children already enrolled in our school, who wish to enroll siblings,
will have next preference for new enrollment. Families who are registered,
contributing members of St. Joseph Parish, and who do not already have any
children in the school have next preference. Finally, there is open
registration for all children in and out of the Parish.
A
$150.00 non-refundable registration fee per family is due at the time of
registration. The fee is applied to the new school year’s tuition. Each new
student’s birth and baptismal certificate should be presented at this time.
Anyone
registering after all classes have been filled will be put on a waiting list.
Final acceptance is dependent on the number of openings and the student’s
previous school records. Letters of acceptance will be mailed at the end of
April. Kindergarten acceptance letters will be sent after the students have
been screened by the kindergarten teachers or their public school district.
Tuition
payments for the current school year must be completed before the student
begins the next school year.
Students
who are requesting admittance in grades one through eight will be asked to
visit the classroom for one day prior to completion of any registration
forms. This enables the teacher and principal to assess the needs of the
student and to decide if we are able to meet those needs. The principal makes
the final determination regarding acceptance.
|
|
Report
Cards
|
|
Report
cards are distributed four times a year. Parents must sign and return the
report card envelope after reviewing the report card.
|
|
Retention
Policy
|
|
Students
are promoted to the next grade upon the successful completion of the prescribed
course of study for the academic year. Failure to successfully complete the
required courses will result in either summer school or retention.
Summer
School: Students who fail two subjects for the year must attend summer school
for both subjects in order to be promoted to the next grade. Upon completion
of summer school, proof of attendance and a passing grade must be submitted
to the principal for approval. The principal may also determine the necessity
of summer school for one failing grade before promotion is granted. This will
be decided on an individual basis.
Retention:
Any student who fails more that two subjects for the year will be retained in
the same grade for the following academic year.

|
|
Drop
Off and Pick Up Procedures
|
|
If a
child is eligible for busing and chooses not to ride the bus parents must
notify the school in writing that the child will walk or ride in a car to
school.
Students
should be dropped off no earlier than 7:30 am. Students
should be dropped off at the rear of the school unless parents park their
cars and walk the children to the front walkway. No children should ever be
walking alone at the front of the school building, and no cars should be
passing through the front line of pedestrian traffic.
Students
should be picked up no later than 2:05 pm on regular
school days and 11:00 am on early
dismissal days. If you are going to be late in picking up children, please
call the school. Otherwise, children will be sent to the Extended Day
Program. Parents will be charged at the Extended Day rate for each child,
payable upon pick up of the child.
Students
should not arrive at school before 7:30 A.M. Students who are dropped off
prior to 7:30 will be sent to a
classroom for before-school supervision. The fee for this service is $3.00
per day, payable each day.
When
entering the parking lot to pick up their child, parents should use extreme
caution. Parents should park in the lined spaces to wait for their child.
Parents are not allowed to drive up to the door. Please walk to the children
rather than waiting at your vehicle. It is very dangerous to have children
running across the parking lot to meet parents.
PLEASE
USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN DRIVING ANYWHERE IN THE VICINITY OF THE SCHOOL.
