District Calendar 17. CMS Calendar August 20014 Dear Parents, As we begin the 2014-2015 school year, I would like to share with you my reflections on “all things Central.” I believe that our strength lies in our school community. Both staff and parents are passionate about guiding our students through these middle years, preparing them for the challenges they will face in high school and beyond. There are always “bumps” along the way, and I appreciate the open and honest conversations we have, as, together, we solve problems before they become issues. Our staff continues to learn and grow, incorporating both State and District initiatives as we strive to add rigor to our classes. Our ultimate goal is to provide opportunities for students to apply new learning and to develop critical thinking and problem solving skills. The Common Core State Standards helped us focus our strategies and target our long-term goals, and ultimately will improve the quality of instruction in our classrooms. This has been a year of many changes in education, and I feel that our school community has risen to the challenge. This school year will bring further change as we begin the rollout of the District’s digital learning initiative. The nature of teaching and learning will be impacted as devices become an essential tool for both teachers and students. I am excited that our school community is a part of this initiative. I would like to take a moment to thank the CMS PTA for their continued support. I hope that you all attend the membership meeting this fall so that you can be involved in the many programs they facilitate. I would also like to welcome our new families- you couldn’t be in a better place! Thank you all for entrusting us with your children. I am looking forward to a fun and productive school year. Sincerely, Shelley Somers Shelley Somers Greenwich Public Schools IMPORTANT NOTICE August, 2014 Dear Parents and Guardians, The Greenwich Public Schools has updated the district’s attendance procedure to reflect changes mandated by the Connecticut State Board of Education Attendance Guidelines defining excused and unexcused absences. The State of Connecticut definition of truancy remains: four (4) unexcused absences in one month or ten (10) unexcused absences in one year. The definition of excused and unexcused absences has changed. Absences one through nine are considered excused when the student’s parent/guardian contacts school personnel and approves of the absence. However, the tenth and all other absences thereafter will only be excused for specific reasons and only when appropriate documentation is provided to school. Below is a brief summary of the new requirements for reporting absences. First 9 days of absence On the day of the absence, call your child’s school to report the absence and the reason for the absence. Absence day 10 and beyond On the day of the absence, call your child’s school to report the absence and the reason for the absence. A written note must be sent to the school within 10 school days of the student’s return to school. An absence will only be designated as excused as follows: • Student Illness – requires a note from a medical professional or the school nurse • Observance of a religious holiday • Mandated court appearance • Funeral or death in the family • Other emergency beyond the control of the student’s family For other examples of excused absence designations, please refer to the full Attendance Procedure at www.greenwichschools.org School attendance is a vital aspect of successful learning. Parents/Guardians are compelled to send their child to school and can incur legal liability if they fail to do so. School personnel will continue to work cooperatively with parents to assist in remedying and preventing truancy. For further information about the GPS attendance procedure please visit the home page of the Greenwich Public School website at www.greenwichschools.org If you have any questions regarding the new attendance procedures, please contact your child’s school. Sincerely, Ellen Flanagan, Ed. D. Deputy Superintendent Escuelas Públicas de Greenwich AVISO IMPORTANTE Agosto 2014 Queridos padres y tutores, Las Escuelas Públicas de Greenwich han actualizado la normativa del distrito sobre la asistencia a la escuela para reflejar los cambios obligatorios que se han producido en las Normativas de Asistencia de la Junta Directiva de Educación de Connecticut al definir ausencias justificadas y ausencias sin justificación. La definición de absentismo escolar sigue siendo la misma, es decir, cuatro ausencias sin justificar en un mes o diez ausencias sin justificar en un año. La definición de ausencias justificadas y ausencias sin justificación ha cambiado. Las primeras nueve ausencias se consideran justificadas cuando el padre, madre o tutor del alumno contacta al personal de la escuela y este aprueba la justificación. No obstante, la décima y las consiguientes ausencias solamente serán justificadas por razones específicas y sólo cuando se facilita a la escuela la documentación apropiada. A continuación se muestra un breve resumen de los nuevos requisitos para informar de las ausencias: Los primeros nueve días de ausencia La décima ausencia y las subsiguientes El día de la ausencia hay que llamar a la escuela de su hijo para informar de la ausencia y la razón de la ausencia. El día de la ausencia hay que llamar a la escuela de su hijo para informar de la ausencia y la razón de la ausencia. También se tendrá que mandar una nota a la escuela en un plazo de 10 días escolares una vez que el estudiante vuelve a la escuela. La ausencia sólo se designará justificable si cumple los siguiente requisitos: • Enfermedad del estudiante, en este caso se requiere una nota del doctor o de la enfermera escolar. • Cumplimiento de una fiesta religiosa • Comparecencia obligatoria en el tribunal • Funeral o fallecimiento en la familia • Otras emergencias fuera del control de la familia del estudiante. Para ver otros ejemplos de ausencias justificadas, rogamos consulten la Normativa sobre Asistencia en su totalidad visitando www.greenwichschools.org La asistencia a la escuela es un aspecto vital para el éxito del aprendizaje. Los padres y tutores están obligados a mandar a sus hijos a la escuela y podrán incurrir en responsabilidades legales si no lo hacen. El personal escolar continuará colaborando con los padres para ayudarles a remediar y prevenir el absentismo escolar. Para obtener más información sobre la normativa de GPS sobre la asistencia a la escuela, visiten la página Web de la Escuelas Públicas de Greenwich en www.greenwichschools.org Si tienen cualquier pregunta relacionada con las nuevas normativas de asistencia, rogamos se pongan en contacto con la escuela de su hijo.

having a good summer. I am writing to advise you of the procedures that must be followed in order to purchase a bus pass for your child for the 2014-2015 school year. Students who live within established walking distances are not eligible to ride the bus. However, these students, on a space available basis, upon payment of a fee, and with the provision that there be no change in bus routes or stops may receive transportation to and from Central Middle School. Due to individual bus enrollment, we may not be able to accommodate every family interested in obtaining a courtesy bus pass. Students not eligible to ride the bus may be able to purchase a bus pass on a first come, first serve basis beginning on September 13th at 7:00 a.m. in the Main Office at Central Middle School. The number of courtesy passes available will be based on the actual ridership of each bus on each route. The following condition must be met in order to be eligible for this service. Please check the bus route for 2014-2015 school year as some have changed. There must be sufficient seats on that bus route. The form on the reverse side of this letter must be completed and returned with a check for $230.00 made payable to the Town of Greenwich. A parent must present the application and the check to our Main Office; we will not accept applications sent through the mail or from your child. There are no late buses on Wednesdays; therefore, if a bus is full, paid bus pass holders may not be accommodated on Wednesdays. Bus privileges may be revoked and a pro-rated portion of the fee refunded if additional students who are eligible for free transportation move into the District. The fee for a courtesy bus pass will be waived for families eligible for the Free and Reduced Lunch program. We hope this information is helpful to you in planning to meet your child’s transportation needs for the upcoming school year.

The last four digits only of the social security number of the adult signer must be included unless otherwise noted.

Children may buy lunch for $3.15 for elementary schools, $3.30 for middle schools, $3.40 for high school and breakfast for $1.50-$2.00 at participating schools. Children who qualifY under U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) guidelines may get meals free or at a reduced price of $.40 cents for lunch and $.30 cents for breakfast. All meals served must meet nutrition standards established by the USDA . If a child has a disability, as determined by a doctor, and the disability prevents the child from eating the regular school meal, the school will make substitutions prescribed by the doctor. If a substitution is needed, there will be no extra charge for the meal. Please call your school for further information. Note: Children receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) or Temporary Family Assistance (TFA) benefits may be directly certified and automatically eligible for free meals. Questions regarding SNAP/TFA and direct certification should be sent to the determining official (John Hopkins, 203-625-7499) If you have received a NOTICE OF DIRECT CERTIFICATION for free meals , do not complete the application. However, do let the schoo l know if any chi ldren in your hou seho ld are not listed on the Notice of l)irect Certification letter you received. An application for free meal benefits cannot be approved unless it contains all required i1~{ormatimz. I. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. My child's application was approved last year. Do I need to fill out another one? Yes. Your child's application is only good for that school year and for the first few days of this new school year. Note however, that unless you have been notified that your children are directly certified or you submit an application that is approved, the children must pay full price for school meals and the school will not send you a reminder notice of expired eligibility when the carry-over period ends. Do I need to fill out an application for each child that attends the same school district? No. Use one Free and Reduced Price School Meals Application for all students in your household that attend that district. (Note: If you have children that attend different school DISTRICTS, then one application will need to be completed for each district.) We cannot approve an application that is not complete, so be sure to fill out all required information. Return the completed application to your school's office. Who can get free meals? All children in households receiving benefits from SNAP or TFA can get free meals regardless of your income. (Note: Free eligibility based on SNAP or TFA is extended to all children in the household when the application lists a SNAP or TFA case number for any household member.) In addition, your children can get free meals if your household's gross income is within the free limits on the Federal Income Guidelines. Households with children who are foster children, runaway or homeless, or are enrolled in the Head Start/Even Start Program should check off the appropriate box on the application and contact the school for assistance in receiving benefits. Note: Subsidized adoptions and subsidized guardianships are not automatically eligible for free meals. These require the calculation of all household income plus the adoption/guardianship subsidy. Can FOSTER children get free meals? Yes , foster children that are under the legal responsibility of a foster care agency or court, are eligible for free meals. There are a few ways that a school can determine a foster child as being eligible for free meals: a. The determining official (the person who approves the free and reduced meal application) receives a copy from the foster parent, of the legal document or legal court order showing that the child is a foster child; b. The determining official receives a copy from the Board of Education or school's main office, of the Department of Children and Family Services (DCF) 603 form indicating that the child is a foster child ; or c. The foster parent completes a free and reduced meal application and checks off that the child is a foster child and lists the child ' s personal use income if applicable. Note that a foster child is categorically eligible for free meals and may be included as a member of the foster family if the foster family chooses to also apply for benefits. If the foster family is not eligible for free or reduced price meal benefits, it does not prevent a foster child from receiving free meal benefits; however, a foster child 's free eligibility does not automatically extend to all students in the household . Can homeless and runaway children get free meals? Yes, children who meet the definition of homeless or runaway qualify for free meals. If you have not been told your children will get free meals, please call or e-mail Denise Qualey to see if they qualify at: (203) 622-6556 or [email protected]. to see if they qualify. If a member of my household receives SNAP or TFA benefits may I submit an application? Yes. Households with any member who is currently certified to receive SNAP or TF A benefits may submit an application for these children with the abbreviated information as indicated on the application and instructions. Can my child's free meal status be extended to all children in the household? It depends . Categorical eligibility for free meals is extended to all children in a household when the application lists a SNAP or TFA case number for any household member. If you think free benefits should be extended to all children in the household, contact the determining official. Who can get reduced price meals? Your children can get low cost meals ifyour household income is within the reduced price limits on the Federal Income Eligibility Chart on the second page of this letter. Should I fill out an application if I received a letter this school year saying m y children are approved for free meals? Please read the letter you got carefully and follow the instructions.

If you normally get overtime, include it, but do not include it if you only work overtime sometimes. If you have lost a job or had your hours or wages reduced, use your current income. 18. We are in the military. Do we include our housing allowance as income? Ifyou get an off-base housing allowance, it must be included as income. However, if your housing is part of the Military Housing Privatization Initiative, do not include your housing allowance as income. 19. My spouse is deployed to a combat zone. Is her combat pay counted as income? No, if the combat pay is received in addition to her basic pay because of her deployment and it wasn't received before she was deployed, combat pay is not counted as income. Contact your school for more information. 20. My family needs more help. Are there other programs we might apply for? Your child and family may be eligible for SNAP benefits if your child is determined to be eligible for free meals. For information regarding the SNAP and to contact the Department of Social Services office in your town, contact United Way's free referral number 2-1-1 (free call, statewide). 21. Will information on my application be kept confidential? We will use the information on your application to decide if your child should get free or reduced price meals. We may inform officials connected with Title I and the National Assessment of Educational Progress whether your child is eligible for free or reduced price school meals. They will use this information for funding and/or evaluation purposes. Information may also be disclosed if you want the application to be used to get other benefits.

GREENWICH PUBLIC SCHOOLS MIDDLE SCHOOL SPORTS INTRAMURAL AND COMPETITIVE PROGRAM 2014 FALL SCHEDULE SETTING THE STANDARD FOR EXCELLENCE MIDDLE SCHOOL SPORTS Recreational and competitive sports activities provide an outlet for the natural energies of people of all ages. “Joy through movement” is a common human experience. The Greenwich Public Schools currently offer the most extensive Middle School Sports program in the State of Connecticut. Middle school age children in particular, both enjoy and learn from involvement in sports and recreational activities. Not only can they improve physical fitness and sports skills that are fun, but they learn to lead, follow, share, and cooperate in socially acceptable ways. Rapid changes in physical growth and maturation, coupled with pressures exerted by the peer group, make sports a healthy alternative to other forms of recreation. It is important for every adult associated with the middle school sports program to support, through word and example, the concept that the exhilaration experienced through sports is more real and lasting than any form of “high” achieved by other means. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this handbook is to provide parents, students, team supervisors, and faculty members with information about the Greenwich Middle School Sports Program. It is intended to help you to become familiar with our philosophy, to explain individuals’ responsibilities, to outline the yearly calendar for Intramurals and the Competitive program, and to provide sample copies of forms used in the Middle School Sports program. PHILOSOPHY It is our belief that participation in sport activities contributes to the development of the middle school-aged boy and girl. A program which encourages and welcomes all students is basic to this philosophy. The program as described herein is designed to meet the needs of competitive and intramural athletes. DESCRIPTION The middle school sports program provides opportunities for students to participate in both the competitive and recreational arenas of sport. INTRAMURALS PHILOSOPHY: One of the main objectives of the Middle School Intramurals is to provide every student with the opportunity to play and enjoy friendly activity under the supervision of certified staff. While the main focus is recreational, participants may practice game skills learned in physical education class. Activities which are not offered in regular physical education class are also available. These offerings may differ from school to school, and season to season as interest and participation dictate. Some of the activities which may be offered are: Soccer Flag football Floor Hockey Basketball Diamond Sports Adventure Climbing Rollerblading Volleyball Fitness Center Racquet Sports Dance SCHEDULE: Intramurals are typically offered four days a week. Physicals and permission forms are not required for participation in the Intramural Program. COMPETITIVE PROGRAM PHILOSOPHY: The value of increased skills instruction, additional practice time, and interschool competition add to the growth and development of the middle school student. The middle school competitive program provides students with opportunities to nurture their competitive drive while maintaining a high standard of sportsmanship. Team practices and competition provide a forum which fosters respect for diverse athletic capabilities. When necessary and feasible, the competitive program offers A and B level teams to maximize student participation. The sports which have been selected for this program complement the competitive opportunities throughout the Greenwich community, while considering limitations imposed by facilities, field space, transportation, and staffing. Athletes compete against teams in the Greenwich Middle Schools, private school teams, and selected regional teams as opportunities arise. Games will be officiated by qualified officials. Sports offerings include: FALL Soccer – boys “A” Soccer – boys “B” Soccer – girls Field Hockey - girls Co-ed Volleyball WINTER Basketball Basketball Basketball Basketball – – – – boys “A” boys “B” girls “A” girls “B” SPRING Baseball - boys Softball - girls Co-ed Track & Field REQUIREMENTS: o Students must have a sports physical PRIOR to the beginning of the season and BEFORE try-outs for all competitive teams. Physicals are valid for 13 months from date of physical. Physicals are not required for intramural participation. (forms are included in this packet) Physical forms are to be turned in to the school nurse. o The Competitive program requires daily attendance for practices and competitions. o Students will need to arrange for transportation home from school following practices and games. o During the time between school dismissal and the start of the competitive program, (which will vary from school to school depending on site availability), students will be required to be at one of four locations: 1. Homework Club 2. Intramurals 3. Other school sponsored activity/extra help from teachers 4. Assigned study hall o Students and parent/guardian will need to complete a signed permission slip prior to the start of EACH season indicating commitment to the program, a medical release, and intention to attend one of the four locations listed above. (Forms are included in this packet) o o o Try-outs will determine eligibility to play on the competitive team. It is necessary for students to plan to attend all days of try-outs (accommodations will be made for extenuating circumstances). Cuts that may be necessary will be made at the discretion of the coaches. These will be held Monday through Friday from school dismissal time until approximately 4:30 or 5:00 for the first week of the season. Basketball try-outs may pose an exception to this time frame. Students in all three grades may try out for the teams, male and female, for all sports as long as there is not a sport/team of comparable nature in which to participate. (i.e., softball and baseball) In addition to skill performance, eligibility will be determined by attendance and attitude. Students will be issued team uniforms (which are the only authorized uniform) specific to each sport. Rubber cleats or sneakers are the only permissible type of footwear. Mouth guards are mandatory for field hockey players. SCHEDULE: o Game times may vary. o Practice runs for 90 minutes per session. These sessions will take place at varying time blocks from school to school depending on the site availability. o Away games may require a time commitment beyond 5:30. We pride ourselves in setting the standard for excellence by maintaining the highest caliber of coaching, supervision, demonstrated sportsmanship, and program quality. All students who wish to try out for a competitive athletic team must complete this sheet on both sides and return to your Middle School for processing prior to try outs. A new permission form MUST be filled out prior to the start of EACH season: Fall, Winter and Spring. MIDDLE SCHOOL COMPETITIVE ATHLETICS PERMISSION FORM STUDENT NAME:__________________________________ ________________ Birth Date_________________________________________ Grade ___________ Address:___________________________________________________________ Parent/guardian _______________________ Home phone___________________ SPORT:____________________________________________________________ The Middle School Competitive Sports Program is an extension of the Middle School Intramural Program. It requires a four-day per week commitment from the students and will take place after school. Students will try out for these teams and will participate in competition against other middle schools here in Greenwich and in Fairfield and Westchester Counties. If a sport does not begin until 4:00 or so, students will be required to attend a school based program (homework club, intramurals, other school sponsored activity/extra help from teachers or an assigned study hall). Parents are responsible for student transportation home after all practices and games. By its nature, participation in competitive athletics includes risk of injury, which may range in severity from minor disabling to even death. Although serious injuries are not common in supervised school athletic programs, it is impossible to eliminate the risk. Participants have the responsibility to help reduce the chance of injury. Players must obey all safety rules, report all physical problems to their coaches, follow a proper conditioning program, and inspect their own equipment daily. Additionally, they must have had a “sports physical” that is current both during tryouts and throughout participation in the season. If your physical is due to expire before tryouts or before the end of the sports season, a new physical must be submitted prior to tryouts and/or participation. No exceptions can be made. By signing this Permission Form, we acknowledge that we have read the above information. Parents or students who do not wish to accept the commitments, risks and responsibilities described in this correspondence should not sign this permission form. I hereby give my consent for the above named student: 1: to represent his/her school in approved athletic activities; 2. to accompany any school team of which he/she is a member on its local or out-of-town trips; 3. to receive, through a medical doctor of the school’s choice, emergency medical care which may become reasonably necessary in the course of such athletic activities or travel.

A sports physical is only good for 13 months from the date completed. If the physical is due to expire before the end of the current sports season, a new physical must be submitted prior to continued participation. _________________________________________________ Date of physical SEAL/STAMP BELOW GREENWICH PUBLIC SCHOOLS Greenwich, CT July 2014 Dear Parents: The attached Physical Exam Form for Sports Participation is to be filled out by your physician when you take your son/daughter for their physical exam. It is strongly recommended that this form be filled out by your physician and you, so that at any time during the school year your child will be eligible to try out for any of the Competitive Sports programs, if they so choose. As per town policy, your son or daughter will not be able to attend the tryouts or practice sessions if this form is not completed and dated within 13 months of the try-out date. Many children are unsure if they would like to try out for a team until a day or two before it starts. This is the nature of middle school children. As we are sure you are well aware, appointments with your physicians need to be made many weeks in advance; thus the problem arises: How can I get an appointment with my doctor by tomorrow? Please don’t let this hold back your child from being part of the Competitive Program. The fall Competitive Program starts in early September. The sports offered will be Soccer, Field Hockey and Co-ed Volleyball. The winter Competitive Program will start in early December. The sports offered will be: Girls and Boys Basketball. The spring Competitive Program starts in early April. The sports offered will be: Boys Baseball and Girls Softball and Co-ed Track. The teams are open to students in all grades at the middle school. Unfortunately, if we have a large number of interested participants, there is a possibility that there will be cuts. If you have any questions, please call: Nancy James (Central Middle School) Robin Schemansky (Eastern Middle School) Phil Tarantino (Western Middle School) 203-661-8500 203-637-1744 203-531-5700 Greenwich Department of Health Greenwich Public Schools Health Services SPORTS POLICY ADDENDUM Effective immediately the following requirement is in effect: The competitive sports program is a voluntary program, therefore, a sports physical examination will be required for all competitive sports participants. No exemptions (religious or medical) will be accepted. Each time you plan to pick your child up from an event, you must have this form signed by either the Middle School Sports Director (Nancy James/CMS, Robin Schemansky/EMS or Phil Tarantino/WMS) or your School’s Principal PRIOR to the end of the school day.

I understand that Greenwich Public Schools’ Middle School Athletic Rules require that students ride the bus to and from all athletic events and a departure from this requirement will release the Greenwich Board of Education from all liability for any adverse results that may occur. I agree to release the Greenwich Board of Education and its employees and officers from all liability with reference to the above stated transportation. This form must be on file in the Athletic Office PRIOR to the dismissal of school on the day of the contest. _____________________________ Signature of Parent or Guardian Approved _____________________________ Signature of Sports Director __________________________ Date Not Approved __________________________ Date GREENWICH PUBLIC SCHOOLS Greenwich, CT July 2014 Dear Parents: The Greenwich Public School district requests that teams refrain from purchasing additional items that are not part of your school supplied middle school sports uniform. This practice ensures program equity across all schools. We have had problems enforcing this policy across the district and in each of the middle schools. This letter is a request that you respect and support the stated policy that was developed by the three middle school principals, the assistant superintendent, and the program coordinator for physical education. The policy reads as follows: “The district practice for middle school sports is for teams to wear only the uniform provided by the district as funded by the budget allocation for each middle school.” We have had situations where parent groups have purchased supplemental uniform items, such as warm-ups and sweatshirts. This violates our policy. Coaches are required to reinforce this policy with his/her athletes and parents at pre-season meetings so we do not run into a compromising situation. It is only with your support that we can implement this policy at each middle school. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact the middle school sports directors: Central Middle School Eastern Middle School Western Middle School Nancy James Robin Schemansky Phil Tarantino 203-661-8500 203-637-1744 203-531-5700 Read by: Parent Signature:_______________________________________________________________ Student Signature:______________________________________________________________ Date:_________________________________________________________________________ Middle School Competitive & Intramural Program Timeline (all dates subject to change) Fall Sports: Boys “A” Soccer, Boys “B” Soccer, Girls Soccer Field Hockey, Coed Volleyball Try-out Dates: September 2, 4, 5, 8, 2014 Deadline for Paperwork: August 26, 2014 The sport teams will make cuts Winter Sports: Boys “A” Basketball, Boys “B” Basketball Girls “A” Basketball, Girls “B” Basketball Try-out Dates: December 1, 2, 4, 5, 2014 Deadline for Paperwork: November 21, 2014 The sport teams will make cuts Spring Sports: Boys Baseball, Girls Softball, Coed Track and Field Try-out Dates: March 30, 31, April 2, 6, 2015 Deadline for Paperwork: March 23, 2015 The sport teams will make cuts Intramurals: One of the main objectives of intramurals is to provide every student with the opportunity to play and enjoy various sports under the supervision of certified staff.
