Guidance and positive discipline
Preschool staff uses positive behavior guidance to help children learn how to interact with others and use the classroom materials . Children are taught acceptable options for unacceptable behavior .
If contacted regarding your child ’ s behavior in school , you will be expected to work with school staff on a positive intervention behavior plan to ensure a safe and secure classroom for all children and staff .
Toileting
Children must be toilet trained to attend preschool . This means a child knows when they need to use the bathroom and can independently take care of their own personal needs . Pull-up diapers are not a substitute for being toilet trained . If a child is experiencing toileting accidents in school , parent / caregiver may be asked to postpone attendance in preschool until the child is completely toilet trained .
Tuition payments , if applicable
It is important that tuition is paid on time . Non-payment of tuition may result in the child being dropped from preschool . If you are having difficulty making payments , contact the main preschool office at 763-506-1500 to make arrangements .
Weapons
It is the policy of the Anoka-Hennepin School District to maintain a positive , safe and secure learning and working environment . No weapons or items that look like weapons ( toy guns , knives , etc .) are allowed at school , on the school bus or on school property . If a child brings one to school , the parent will be called and the child may be dropped from the preschool program .
