hold a general PTO meeting.
REMINDER—Arrival and Dismissal Building Hours
School doors open at 7:30 am. Please do not drop off students before that
time. Also, our doors will close for dismissal preparation at 2:45 pm each
day. Doors will not reopen until 3:15 pm. Please be aware that the doors
will not be opened during the dismissal process because all faculty and
staff are involved with dismissal. We appreciate your cooperation with
this policy—we are working to make your child and all children safe!
If you need to pick up your child early, please make arrangements that
take these times into consideration.
Wilson Montessori Mission Statement
The Woodrow Wilson community is a diverse, student-centered environment
dedicated to the promotion of safety, high achievement, creativity and teamwork in
learning. We encourage all children to become responsible citizens and
develop their individual strengths.
Nurse’s Corner
Please do not send medication with your child to school. If your child
is in need of medicine during the school day, a medication order
form will be provided to the parent which will need to be completed
by your Physician. The completed form and labeled prescribed medication must be brought to the clinic by the parent. Please remember
that the only medications which will be given at school are those
that are meant to manage a chronic condition such as asthma. Over
the counter medications will not be given at any time per HISD
guidelines. Likewise, antibiotics cannot be given, so please make
arrangements to give the medicine before and/or after school. Children are NOT to have any medications in their possession at
school.
Additionally, please remember that if a child has a temperature of
100.0 or above, or has symptoms of illness, he/she may not return
to school until the symptoms and/or fever is not present for 24
hours. Please be aware that this means that the child does not have
temperature and has not taken any fever reducing medications.
Please watch where you park!
Please make sure to recognize our no parking areas around the
school. We all want to be good role models for our children, so
we need to make sure to follow the rules. If a sign says not to
park, please do not park.
Please do not leave your car at any time while you are in the circle drive, especially during dismissal. Remember, if you need to
get out of the car for any reason, circle drive carpool is not an
option for you. reserved parking and handicapped parking
should be used by permit holders only. We thank you in advance for following the rules and being a responsible and courteous Wilson Montessori Community member!

that you not take a left into
