NEW TO WYATT?

Getting Started

New Student Registration Requirements
The following information is needed to enroll at Wyatt:
  1. Proof of residency such as an electric bill or gas bill (not water bills) or a copy of a current lease agreement.
  2. Physician signed immunization record
  3. Certified birth certificate
  4. Copy of last report card
  5. Student social security card (if available)

Transportation
Children may be picked up in one of the following ways:
  • Walkers are picked up by caregivers at the front of the school by the flagpole. Depending on the child's grade level, walkers are also picked up at the south exits of the school. Walker exits will be made available at Meet the Teacher Day, usually a few days before school starts.
  • Car-poolers are dropped off and picked up at the front of the school (Coit Carpool) in the carpool line OR opposite of the gym exit entering carpool lane from Gifford near church (Gifford Carpool).  See the diagram at right for more details.  Caregivers should place a sheet of paper in their windshield with the child’s name and grade in large letters.
  • Bus riders will receive information by mail from the transportation department prior to the start of school. Phone: (469) 752-0780
  • Bike riders must leave their bikes at the bike racks, located at the south/east corner near the gym. 

Lunch

Children may bring their lunch from home or they may buy a lunch at school. If buying lunch, money should be placed in the child’s lunch account at https://www.schoolcafe.com/ prior to the start of school or may be sent to school with the child at any time during the year.

School Schedule
Children should be in their classrooms as close to 7:30 AM as possible to allow them time to acclimate and get comfortable before the day begins. The school day begins at 7:40 AM; children are counted as tardy after 7:40 AM. School is dismissed at 3:00 PM; children will not be allowed to enter the school after 3pm to retrieve forgotten items due to security reasons.

Sick Child
If a child is sick, it is imperative that the caregivers call the school Childsafe Line at (469) 752-3800 and dial 3 to leave the child’s name, grade, teacher, and reason for absence on the voice mail. When an absent child returns to school, you MUST bring a note explaining their absence or the absence will be counted as unexcused. You can also report absences through Skyward Family Access.
