Immanuel Families, 

What a blessing to have our students back in the building learning about Jesus! We have missed all of you! Continued prayers of health and safety to all of our students learning in the building, as well as our remote learning students. 

These past seven days of school have gone by so fast, and the students are learning all the new protocols and procedures. Immanuel is thankful for your family's support during this time. 

Parents, you have done a great job with dropping off your students and following the COVID-19 protocols. Starting Tuesday, September 8 we are asking that parents check their children’s temperature before coming to school. We will not be checking temperatures as a school on the way in. The CDC is no longer recommending this as a practice for K-12 schools along with the American Academy of Pediatrics. Our teachers have thermometers in the classrooms and will be providing temperature checks as needed throughout the day. 

Parents with children in the Middle School please do not come to pick up your children until 3:10 in the pick up line. If you have multiple children and they are in the younger grades, you still should come at 3:10 for pick up. All children will stay with their homeroom teacher while they are waiting to be picked up. Thank you! 

Our Lion’s Life Newsletter will typically be published every 2nd and 4th Friday of the month. Please be sure to read through it for important information pertaining to your child’s education. 

Serving His Children, 
Mr. AJ Amling - Principal
Curriculum Night:

Due to COVID-19, Immanuel Lutheran School will be cancelling our annual curriculum night. We want to ensure the health and safety of our students and staff. If you would like to learn more about your child’s curriculum, please reach out to their teacher and they can answer any of your questions. Thank you for your understanding.

Tardy Policy:

Starting Tuesday September 8, 2020 we will be adhering to the tardy policy from the Student/Parent Handbook. The policy is listed below. 

Students not in the school by 8:00am (according to school clocks) will be considered tardy. Tardiness due to medical appointments is considered excused provided a doctor’s/dentist’s note accompanies the returning student. Tardy students must report to the school office. Tardiness carries the following consequences:
1st, 2nd day tardy in one quarter– An email will be sent home through Sycamore
3rd day tardy in one quarter – An email will be sent home along with a phone conference with the principal.
If there are 4 days tardy in the same quarter a student will be issued a detention for the following morning, before school for 30 minutes beginning at 7:15am.
A 5th day tardy in the same quarter will result in the student serving another detention the following morning, before school for 30 minutes beginning at 7:15am and a mandatory meeting with the principal.
If a parent feels that being late for school is completely the parent’s fault, then that parent can choose to pay a fine of $10.00 in lieu of their child(ren) serving the detention. Money will be donated towards our Chapel Missions.
Students will serve the morning detention with the principal.
An Out of School Suspension will be given for the day following the 6th and subsequent days tardy in one quarter.
Remote Learning:

Remote learning is in full swing! Your child’s teacher will be reaching out to you daily via DOJO, google classroom, or email for attendance. Please be sure to connect with your child’s teacher each day. Remote learning materials will be picked up on Mondays between 9:00-4:00pm, and materials will be dropped off Fridays from 9:00-3:30pm. If we do not have school on a Monday or Friday, we will have pick up on the first day of the week that we have school, and drop off the last day of the week that we have school. Your child’s teacher will be in contact with you daily for any materials that are needed. Thank you for following these procedures! 
Chapel Offering:

At Immanuel Lutheran School we participate together in weekly Christian worship and the gathering of offerings. These offerings are used to help support local, national and worldwide missions. This a great opportunity for you to begin to teach your child the importance of giving. Giving a portion of what they have been blessed with, whether large or small, and sharing it with others
that may be less fortunate, is an act of worship, which will bring joy and peace.

This year we are proudly supporting the SOS Center of Milwaukee. I attached a link to their website so you can see what they offer children around the Milwaukee area. http://soscenterinc.org/
