Everything parents need, in one place

Respecting the dignity of every person, young or old, is a core value of our community. We do not accept violence or the use of force of any kind; such cases are handled by the teachers, the administration and the parents.

We use clean and respectful language, speak politely to the staff, and follow instructions in class, at recess and during activities.

Damaging school equipment means repairing the damage or covering its cost.

At the end of the day we leave the classroom clean, chairs up and the board erased.

Students may choose their clothing, as long as it is respectful and appropriate: modest dress, clean and neat clothes, without slogans, prints, pictures or loud colors, and long hair tied back.

Students wear closed shoes or sandals with a back strap. Flip-flops, Crocs and slippers are not allowed, and for safety shoes stay on at school.

Students bring two generous meals each day: breakfast and lunch. At 12:00 there is a fruit break, provided by the school.

Anyone who wishes can sign up separately for the breakfasts and lunches served at the preschool, for 500 pesos a month.

Soccer and dodgeball are allowed only in coordination with the teachers, on agreed days and recesses. Other ball games are played only in the yard, never in classrooms or inside the building.

Phones are not to be brought to school. In special cases, a request is filled out at the office and written permission is given; the phone stays in the office until the end of the day.

Cameras, music players, smartwatches and electronic games are not allowed. An unauthorized device is held and returned only to the parents. The school is not responsible for damage, loss or theft.

The gate opens at 8:15 and lessons begin at 8:30. For safety, please do not stay on the premises longer than needed for drop-off and pickup.

Early pickup is possible only with advance notice to the teacher and the administration.

Please plan family vacations around the school calendar. If a child needs to miss more than 3 days, notify the administration in writing. Catching up is the responsibility of the student and parents.

In case of illness, let the teacher know as soon as possible. The student returns when healthy and no longer contagious, and the parents coordinate with the staff how to make up the material.

Parents check their children's hair regularly. A student with lice or nits goes home and returns after full treatment and confirmation from the parents. The school may carry out checks when needed.

The school phone is for work and emergencies only. Visits to friends are arranged in advance.

The school is not responsible for lost items. It is best not to bring valuables. Clothing that is found goes into the lost-and-found box.

Birthday celebrations follow the same format for all students. A store-bought cake may be brought, only from bakeries on the island with a recognized kosher certificate and a kashrut seal. The teacher sets aside an hour for a festive activity, and we recommend bringing tzedakah coins for the whole class.
