Medicine is administered if a consent form is provided. Medication should not be left in lunch boxes or cubbies. Medication should not be mixed in food, bottles or drinks. We do not administer fever reducers or aspirins.

Iwacu Academy kindly ask that toys and playthings remain home. Due to the number of children, we cannot be responsible for any item that is misplaced or broken.

The children will be encouraged to discuss their feelings of anger with the teacher and/or peers. Absolutely no physical form of punishment is allowed. We redirect undesired behavior and encourage children to “Take Some Time for Yourself” or “Cool Down” in order to settle down. Positive role modeling and encouragement of appropriate behavior is used.

You will be called and emailed. You will be required to come to the center as quickly as possible and take your children home. For medical emergencies your child will be taken to the nearest hospital.

We will be happy to celebrate your child’s birthday at the school. If you wish to bring a simple treat (cake, cookies, cupcakes, etc.) for the occasion, please make arrangements ahead of time with the office manager.
