Dear Pre-K Families,
We need your help! Over the past few weeks, we have had some unfortunate happenings during our Bathroom Breaks. Friends are not following expectations for good behavior in the bathroom. They are leaving the facilities a mess, with soap all over the mirrors and walls and paper towel and toilet paper on the floors. Sadly, at this point in the year, we are still only able to send 1 or 2 friends into the bathroom at a time—taking up crucial instructional time–because they are being socially inappropriate—splashing water at each other, throwing toilet paper and paper towels and crawling under stalls, peeking at classmates in what is a very private time.
Bathroom time should be a safe and private experience for all students. Some students are choosing to wait (often until it is too late) to use the bathroom when our class in not there. This is not acceptable. Please speak with your Pre-K student about appropriate bathroom behaviors and let them know that there will be consequences for those who choose to not follow appropriate expectations and rules.
Thank you in advance for your help with this important and sensitive matter.
