New Beginning of Day/Dismissal Routines

The following changes were created by Hulstrom staff at the end of last year to ensure students and families are not on the sides or backs of the school during the beginning of day or during dismissal to continually increase safety.  For their safety, students should arrive no earlier than 7:25 am as Hulstrom does not provide supervision prior to 7:25 am.

• First bell: 7:35 am

• Second (Tardy) bell: 7:40 am*

• Elementary Beginning of Day:

  • All Kindergarten through Fifth Grade Students will enter through the main front school doors beginning at 7:25 am.  This is to limit elementary students standing outside and ensures there will not be any students and families on the sides or back of the school prior to school.  This should also help more parents use the hug and go lane and keep traffic moving around the school. Students will wait outside their classrooms and teachers will be on duty within the school, much like in previous years when there was inclement weather and students entered the building.  At 7:35, students will enter the classroom.

  • Kindergarten students will be given a special label to wear so staff on duty inside the building can assist them in getting to their classrooms quickly and without incident.  They will receive these during Back to School Night.

• Elementary Dismissal:

  • Kindergarten students will exit through the Kindergarten classroom doors.

  • 1st and 2nd grades will exit through the South Side doors.

  • 3rd and 4th grades will exit through the Main School doors.

  • 5th grade will exit through the exterior door to the right of the Kindergarten classrooms.

  • Remember, per BASE guidelines, the playground is not a public playground until 6:00 pm daily so we ask you do not move to the back of the building.

• Middle School Beginning of Day:

  • This remains the same as last year.  Middle School can gather outside the front Middle School doors, and they will enter at 7:35.  Staff will be on duty outside at this side of the school. Please stay in the front of the school, and do not go the sides or back.

• Middle School Dismissal:

  • All Middle School will dismiss through the front Middle School doors.

These changes will limit the number of doors open during the beginning of the day and during dismissal, they will keep students and families towards the front of the school, and will help us better monitor everyone’s safety during these times.

*Students not in their classroom ready to learn at 7:40 am are considered Tardy and must report to the office for a pass.

Hulstrom only accepts checks, credit cards, or online PayForIt payments for field trips, activities, and fees.  We do not accept cash.

At all times students should dress in a manner that is appropriate, denotes sound reasoning and is not distracting. Our intent is to continue to support the concept of free expression and personality through dress and behavior. However, when either or both negatively influence others and portray undesirable images damaging to the reputation of the student body, disrupt the school program, or are a threat to the health or safety of  anyone, change will be encouraged or enforced.

Generally speaking, anything that causes or has the potential of causing embarrassment, derisive, or derogatory comments or class disruption will not be allowed. Adams 12 District dress code will apply at all times. Gym shoes must be non-marking soles and must be worn for PE classes. Shorts must be worn under skirts. Shorts should be approximately mid-thigh length. Sleeveless tops, Halter-tops and/or spaghetti strapped tops may not be worn. Elementary Students - Flip-flops and heels should not be worn to school. Middle Students - are allowed Flip-flops and heels in school.  Hats may not be worn inside the school building.  The appearance of students should be appropriate at all times.
