In accordance with the Federal mandate to maintain a safe and orderly learning environment, Casa Blanca Community School establishes the following dress code policies and procedures. Students are expected to dress in proper uniform attire on a daily basis. It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to ensure compliance with the dress code. All students must be in uniform from the first day of school until the last day of school; including summer school. Unless notice is sent home in advance, there will be no exceptions. Parents, please be sure to provide your child with an adequate wardrobe to assure that he/she will have available a clean uniform each day of the week. It is not the responsibility of the school to provide the student with a uniform at any time. Not having laundered clothes is definitely not an emergency, unless there is an unusual circumstance.

When a student is enrolled at Casa Blanca Community School, a Field Trip Permission Slip is signed by the parents/guardians and put in the student’s folder. This authorizes permission to participate in any school field trip. Parents/guardians will receive advance written notification of all scheduled field trips involving their child. It is the responsibility of the parents/guardians to contact the school if they do not wish their child to participate. Parents/guardians are welcome to attend field trips. No younger children will be allowed on field trips. While field trips are educationally beneficial, they are also a privilege. If a student’s record indicates any reason why he/she should not go on the field trip, the school reserves the right to deny the student to attend the trip. If a student is not attending a field trip for any reason, he/she is expected to report to school and he/she will be supervised at school. All disciplinary school rules, including appropriate behavioral expectations, apply to field trips. Inappropriate behavior on a field trip may result in the loss of future field trip privileges.
In order to assure that parents are well informed of student progress, reports are sent home. Progress reports are sent home midway through each grading period and report cards are sent home at the end of each nine week grading period. The grading scale for grades 1-4 are based on the following percentage scale:
90-100 A (outstanding)
80-89 B (very good)
70-79 C (satisfactory)
60-69 D (having difficulty)
Below 60 F (serious difficulty)
Parents/guardians are strongly encouraged to take an active role in their child’s school life by becoming a part of the PTO. The PTO feels all parents, teachers and staff are an important part of the organization. The PTO helps to improve communication and education at CBCS and they sponsor many fundraisers and school events throughout the school year. There are no dues. Everyone who has a vested interest, parents/guardians, teachers, and staff members are welcome to join the PTO!
