Arrival

Parents/guardians are required to bring their children to the teacher. On most days, a teacher will be outside at the playground gate to meet parents and children in the carpool lane from 8:50 am to 9:05 am. Any special messages are to be given to the teacher. Any medication must be handed
to the director in its original container. Sometimes a medical form must be signed by a doctor, please call the director before sending in any medication. Children may not be dropped off at the synagogue entrance
or even inside the synagogue unless a teacher on duty receives them.
They must be brought to the teacher. Staff must be made aware of each child’s presence before the parent/guardian departs. Parents/guardians are responsible for their children before signing in.

Departure

Parents/guardians should make sure that the teacher knows the child is leaving. Parents/guardians should sign their child out on the clipboard. Parents/guardians are responsible for their children after signing out.

Children may leave with an adult who is not a parent/guardian if that person is listed on the approved pick-up list. Or if the parent/guardian instructs the teacher in writing that their child is to leave with the other adult.

Children will not be released to any person (including parent/guardian) who appears to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs. In such circumstances, an emergency contact will be called. Police will be notified if necessary.

Admissions

Children are admitted to the Gan Ephraim on a first come, first served basis upon the opening of registration each year. The children are considered registered upon receipt of the registration form and fee. The enrollment form contains basic enrollment and health information. If any changes occur to this information, please contact the office as soon as possible.

Upon attending the preschool, a medical form signed by a physician (no rubber stamp signatures) is required and must be renewed every 13 months. If the form is not turned in, the child cannot attend the preschool until the form is received.
