Curriculum Overview

The following link will take you to the Elementary Curriculum page on the Pittsford Central School District website - Elementary Curriculum (pittsfordschools.org).

Homework Requests 

If your child has been legally absent for more than one day, please email your child's teacher and ask them to provide the missed assignments. The homework will be in the Main Office for you to pick up at or before 4:00 p.m. Under our homework policy, teachers are NOT required to prepare materials in advance for students who will be on vacation. Instead, it is suggested that parents engage their child in trip-related educational activities such as keeping a journal, reading about the area visited, learning map skills, or creating a photo album that includes captions for the photos.

Interruption Free Policy

The staff and students at Jefferson Road School value uninterrupted instructional time. The interruption-free school day policy and procedures promote the safety of our students and staff and the security of the building.

Deliveries:

Students will be allowed to go to the office to pick up any items left for them (e.g., glasses, lunches, lunch money) at an appropriate time determined by the teacher. Please support your child in developing independence around preparing items for school each day before leaving home, to minimize the volume of drop offs in the main office and maximize instructional time.

Student Drop-Off:

Parents/guardians are asked to go to the main office when dropping off students in the morning and during the school day. Morning routines are important to getting off to a good start in classrooms. In order to minimize interruptions to this essential part of the day, parents/guardians may not accompany students to classrooms in the morning.
