Protection of children and young people is of paramount importance for the school. The school has developed a security policy to guide school staff, volunteers and the visitors of the school, their responsibilities are to recognise and report all matters of likely abuse or suspected harm to any student.\n<br><br>\nThe school shall be responsible for the care and protection of students while they are in the school premises, or travelling to and from the school using school-provided transportation means, and while moving between the activities organised by the school. We will take all the possible measures to protect students from any forms of exploitation, abuse, oppression and insult and\/or any other physical, sexual or emotional threat, danger or harm.\n<br><br>\nThe School shall be responsible for the supervision of students travelling by school bus from the time they enter the bus till they are dropped back to their designated drop off points after the school hours. School shall be responsible for students availing own transport 15 minutes prior to the school time and 30 minutes after school hours. Parents\/guardians shall be notified of their responsibilities toward their children outside of these two periods. School staff shall be available on telephone call for parents to contact in case of any need till 60 minutes after the school end time.\n<br><br>\nSchool has implemented the following measures to ensure the well- being of children while they are in the school and in the school bus.\n<br><br>\n\u25cf The presence of security guards at all the entry\/exit points of the school ensures that every visitor to the school makes an entry in the visitors register at the entrance.<br>\n\u25cf High quality cameras are installed in the corridors and outdoor play areas to monitor the safety and security of students at all times. Patrolling of security personnel to various locations inside the school and outdoor play areas are performed on regular intervals. All areas of the school premises are monitored by supervisors and teachers adequately. Classroom management is primarily the responsibility of the teacher, and he\/she must make sure that all the students are out of the classroom during recess, activity time and school dispersal time.<br>\n\u25cf School\u2019s staff recruitment policy and procedures includes a background check of new recruits along with a police clearance certificate from the relevant authorities if deemed necessary.<br>\n\u25cf Safety induction is provided to every staff member. Staff members are prepared to ensure that all operations are performed with the utmost regard for safety and health.<br>\n\u25cf Inspections are carried out on a regular basis to promote a safe learning environment by ensuring that all equipment, furniture and facilities used by the students are safe.<br>\n\u25cf Students and staff are trained to react to emergency situations including building evacuation. Fire drill is conducted on a regular basis to ensure the safe and speedy building evacuation.<br>\n\u25cf Students are advised to walk cautiously in school corridors and stairs. They must refrain from running to avoid accidents.<br>\n\u25cf Adequate number of regular staff are trained to provide First Aid and CPR to students and adults.<br>\n\u25cf Physical conflicts of any kind are strictly forbidden among the students. In case of any injury in such situations, the teacher calls the supervisor who will accompany the child to the school nurse. The school nurse is responsible to decide whether the child needs only first aid or must be taken to the hospital for follow up and inform the parent in consultation with school authorities.\n<br><br>\nGIIS believes and protects the rights of the child to grow and enjoy a free, safe and modern life.\n<br><br>\nWe involve children in social life activities according to their age, maturity and capabilities.\nStudents at GIIS enjoy a priority right for protection and safety under all circumstances.\n<br><br>\nService of a student counsellor is made available in the school who investigates any report of child abuse (physical, mental and emotional) or neglect reported by the teacher. Students are also free to approach the student counsellor to report any incidents of abuse at home or elsewhere.\n<br><br>\nSchool has appointed full time experienced Health and Safety personnel to ensure the safety of students and staff as per the standard.\n<br><br>\nStaff is not allowed to carry or use anything that could harm students such as hot drinks or sharp objects inside the classrooms\/corridors or while supervising the students.\n<br><br>\nHousekeeping staff are instructed to take utmost care while using cleaning solvents and other solutions.\n<br><br>\nThe presence of any visitor in classes or corridors during the school hours is forbidden. If the need arises for any visitor to be there, they shall be accompanied by the security staff or school official.\n<br><br>\nWorkers or maintenance staff who visit school will be always under strict supervision which will ensure that they don\u2019t mingle with students or cause any harm.\n<br><br>\nNo students are permitted to leave the school alone and must be accompanied by either a parent or guardian. They can leave with their driver if the parent has informed the school in writing along with the identity details of the third party \u2013 mobile number, copy of Emirates ID.\n<br><br>\nStaff or supervisors are not permitted to transport any student in their private cars unless they are asked to do so by school authorities or with permission from the parents.\n<br><br>\nDesignated area has been allocated for the school bus pick up and drop offs. Security personnel individually inspect every bus after dropping children in the school. All buses are equipped with cameras, app notification to parents along with a bus tracking facility available with all school buses.

However, the basic intervention will begin as soon as internal identification takes place.<br>\n\u25cf Based on the assessment reports, the student will be added to the SEND registry in KHDA.<br>\n\u25cf Parents are informed and guided regarding the kind of support expected from home.<br>\n\u25cf An Individual Education Plan (IEP) will be planned for the student in consultation with the teacher and parents.\n<br><br>\n<b>\u200dIEP - Individual Educational Plans<\/b><br>\n\u25cf IEP is prepared on a term basis for students of determination. Final reviewing is done at the end of each term.<br>\n\u25cf An IEP is written for core subjects\/skill areas based on the needs of the student.<br>\n\u25cf Every IEP will set out a long term goal, short term goals and achievable targets. The IEP will also include strategies for delivering the targets, resources, time frame, support staff and essential criteria for assessment.<br>\n\u25cf Parents, students (whenever feasible) and teachers will be involved in setting targets for IEP.<br>\n\u25cf Students in Key stage 1 and 2 will also be involved in reviewing their performance in achieving these targets.<br>\n\u25cf Reviewing targets\/performance is a continuous process.<br><br>\n\n<b>\u200dIBP - Individualised Behaviour Plan<\/b><br>\nAt GIIS, it is our duty to ensure behaviour management of the entire school. Behaviour intervention is provided for those students with challenging behaviour. At school an Individualised Behaviour Plan (IBP) is provided which will provide strategies to handle the behaviour. The A-B-C (Antecedent \u2013 Behaviour - Consequence) and the frequency of challenging behaviour are recorded to help plan the IBP.\n<br><br>\n<b>\u200dILP - Individualised Learning Plan<\/b><br>\nSome students who are on the support programme for different academic subjects have an ILP.

This means being present, and on time at the beginning of the day, and working through to the end of the day.<br>\n\u25cf The LSA will work in consultation with the SENCO, teachers, parents and agency (if appointed through one).<br>\n\u25cf If there is negotiation about SEND students having more opportunity for independence, e.g. in events, it is still necessary for that LSA to be present in school. School hours are not negotiable by parents employing LSA.\n<br><br>\n<b>\u200dAssessment\/Testing within the school for students with SEND<\/b><br>\n\u25cf Teachers and SENCO need to discuss the requirements of each student before assessments to ensure students with SEND are given a fair test.<br>\n\u25cf For external tests, early discussion is critical so accommodations can be applied for.\n<br><br>\n<b>\u200dRecord Keeping<\/b><br>\n\u25cf Every student with SEND will have an individual file.<br>\n\u25cf Class teachers will keep records of baseline assessments, results of standardised testing and all other records that every student needs to have in their file.<br>\n\u25cf Records of any medication taken and support therapy received will be recorded.<br>\n\u25cf Observations\/concerns will be recorded regularly in the Observation Record Book with SENCO.<br><br>\n\n<b>Evaluating the success of provision<\/b><br>\nIn order to make consistent continuous progress in relation to SEN provision the school encourages feedback from staff, parents during the academic year.\nParents, staff and students are given an opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of provision by means of a questionnaire at the end of the term.<br>\nStudents\u2019 progress will be monitored on a daily basis and observations will be recorded.\n<br><br>\n\u200d<b>Complaints Procedure<\/b><br>\nIf a parent has any concerns or complaints regarding the progress of the child, an appointment can be fixed with the Supervisors and SENCO who will be able to offer advice on formal procedures for complaint if necessary.\nFurther feedback from parents can be given at any time through mail. Contact is available on the school website.<br>\nIf the SENCO finds abnormality in a child's behaviour and the child requires one to one attention and the parent is not cooperating with the school there is a cell in KHDA which deals with these cases.

We strive to ensure that all tasks set are appropriate to each student\u2019s ability. Our lesson plans make clear the expected outcomes for each lesson. Teachers always share the lesson\u2019s learning objective(s) with students as the lesson begins. They also indicate the way in which the activity is linked to the learning objective and the criteria against which the work will be judged. Students should have a clear understanding of the aims of their work and what steps they need to take to complete it successfully. Teachers ask well-phrased questions and analyse students\u2019 responses to find out what they know, understand and to reveal their misconceptions. Target Setting: We set targets for all students using assessment data throughout the academic year. We discuss individual targets and communicate these to parents. Students are encouraged to set their own targets alongside their teachers and be made fully aware of how they can progress within their learning to achieve their learning targets. This is to encourage students to become active learners who take responsibility for and manage their own learning (as opposed to passive recipients of the knowledge offered by the Teacher).<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0234337 exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"0234337\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><h3 class=\"elementor-image-box-title\">\u200dFeedback To Students<\/h3><p class=\"elementor-image-box-description\">\u200dWe believe that positive and constructive feedback to students is very important, as it tells them how well they have done, and what they need to do next in order to improve their work.

A Special Intervention Plan is also drawn for the very low performing students where the parents come and meet the Section Heads and the teacher concerned and strategies are drawn out to improve the performance of the child. An Extension plan is drawn for the students with advanced academic abilities. Curriculum differentiation is made through changes in pace, depth, complexity and teaching methods.\n<br><br>\nIn case of children with learning difficulties, these students are first monitored by the subject teacher and class teacher and then a Referral Form is filled up and then the child is referred to the School Counsellor.\n\n<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1e72e6c exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"1e72e6c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><h3 class=\"elementor-image-box-title\">Reporting To Parents<\/h3><p class=\"elementor-image-box-description\">We have a range of strategies that keep parents fully informed of their child\u2019s progress in school. We encourage parents to contact the school if they have concerns about any aspect of their child\u2019s work. We offer parents the opportunity to meet their child\u2019s teacher formally after each Assessments\/tests are conducted.\n<br><br>\nA consolidated written report for each child is sent to parents at the end of each term which shows grades as well as teacher\u2019s comments and overall comments and suggestions for improvement. These reports outline the child\u2019s progress within all areas of the curriculum, including their strengths and talents. On a continuous basis parents get feedback via notebook correction, continuous evaluation and, where necessary, notes in the student\u2019s school diary. If children are underperforming, teachers inform parents either by phone, through mail or a note in the diary. If a child is consistently underperforming, the Supervisor calls the parents for a discussion and follow up action. In certain cases children may be advised to see the School Counselor for assistance.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element

If any staff member notices signs of a fire or other emergency which could place employees or pupils in danger, they must sound the alarm. If safe to do so, they should attempt to control the fire or other emergency, with assistance if available. Employees should never put themselves at risk even with the smallest fire. No attempt should be made to move burning objects. Report to the Principal who will ensure that the appropriate emergency services are summoned.\n<br><br>\n<b>Evacuation Procedures<\/b>\n<br>\nOn hearing the alarm, or if instructed, switch off any central control switches and\/or switch off any equipment this is being used. If safe to do so, close windows and doors and secure cash and confidential documents. If closed doors feel warm, do not open them. Leave the building by the nearest available exit. Ensure that any visitors you have also leave the building. Do not run. Do not collect personal belongings.\n<br><br>\nDo not hinder roadways and routes that may be used by emergency vehicles. Do not return to the building until the all clear has been given and until instructed by your fire warden. Never assume the evacuation is a drill.\n<br><br>\n<b>Fire Precautions<\/b>\n<br>\nPotential fire risks need not be dangerous provided that some simple but important precautions are observed by all employees:\n<br><br>\n\u25cf Memorise the evacuation procedure, and the emergency exits and assembly points<br>\n\u25cf Become familiar with the position of firefighting equipment and the correct method of  operation of extinguishers and never interfere with, or misuse, the fire equipment<br>\n\u25cf Keep fire exits, routes and access to firefighting equipment clear of any obstructions; do  not wedge fire doors open.<br>\n\u25cf Keep all working areas free of waste as far as possible and in particular those areas which  are not easily accessible, e.g. under desks, behind radiators etc. Keep all combustible  materials at safe distance from heating appliances and do not place anything on heaters<br>\n\u25cf There is to be no smoking on the premises<br>\n\u25cf If anything is noticed that could be a fire hazard, it should corrected if easy and safe to do  so, or reported to the Assistant Facilities Manager<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-962f05f exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"962f05f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><h3 class=\"elementor-image-box-title\">Code Of Safe Conduct<\/h3><p class=\"elementor-image-box-description\"><b>All staff must<\/b>\n<br><br>\n\u200d\u25cf Conform to the \u2018health and safety at work\u2019 policy, all health and safety rules and signs, fire precautions and emergency procedures;<br>\n\u25cf Ensure that they understand and follow the safe operation of their duties; if in any doubt they should seek further explanation from their Department Head<br>\n\u25cf Report all accidents, near misses, potential hazards and damage immediately<br>\n\u25cf Wear any personal protective equipment or clothing that is provided, and ensure that it is properly looked after<br>\n\u25cf Not interfere with or misuse anything provided for the health and safety of employees<br>\n\u25cf Not act in a way that could endanger themselves or others and not play practical jokes which may introduce risk<br>\n\u25cf Not run, especially on stairs or steps.<br>\n\u25cf Use handrails<br>\n\u25cf Never read while walking<br>\n\u25cf Keep their work area tidy and clear of obstructions and not leave things lying around<br>\n\u25cf Clean up any spilt liquids, tracked in rain, etc. immediately<br>\n\u25cf Adopt safe lifting methods if required to handle bulky or heavy objects, only lift or move  what can easily be managed and always bend the knees and keep the back straight.

The school nurse will then assist with a First Aid kit and should an ambulance be required this will be summoned immediately by liaising with the main office. When it is necessary to summon an ambulance, every effort will be made to contact the parents\/guardians immediately. If necessary, a member of staff (preferably the Medical Officer) will accompany the injured child in the ambulance and will remain with him\/her until the parents\/guardians have been located.\n<br><br>\n<b>Administering Medicine to Students<\/b>\n<br>\nWhere possible the need for medicines to be administered at school should be avoided. Parents are therefore requested to try and arrange the timing of doses accordingly.\n<br><br>\n<b>Children with Special Medical Needs<\/b>\n<br>\nA Care Plan will be put in place for any child with a medical or physical condition (Asthma, Allergies, Diabetes, Epilepsy etc.). This should be completed by the child\u2019s parent\/ guardian and returned to the School nurse who will then circulate copies to the Principal\/Section Heads where applicable. It is of paramount importance that several contacts are included and at least three mobile numbers given when completing the forms. All care plans will be revised at the start of each new academic year and it is the parents\u2019\/guardians\u2019 responsibility to inform the school of any immediate changes in their child\u2019s condition. The school operates on a \u2018need to know\u2019 basis and therefore believes that the care plans in place for children with special medical needs should be accessible to all the teaching staff in order to ensure that any incident is managed safely. This will only be carried through with the written consent of the child\u2019s parents\/guardians.\n<br><br>\n<b>Allergies<\/b>\n<br>\nIt is the responsibility of the parents to ensure that all medicines required in school are reached to the doctor in clearly labeled containers. The condition must be discussed with the doctor for the appropriate medication to be administered by the doctor.\n<br><br>\n<b>Asthma<\/b>\n<br>\nChildren requiring an inhaler should carry one on them at all times and a spare inhaler, clearly labelled and on date, should be provided to be kept in the Medical Room.\n<br><br>\n<b>Diabetes<\/b>\n<br>\nChildren with diabetes are encouraged to supply emergency diabetic supplies to the Medical Room in case of an emergency. Fast-acting sugar in the form of Dextrosol (glucose tablets), Hypostop (glucose gel) or fruit juices and slower-acting sugar carbohydrates (biscuits) will be stored by the Medical Officer and made available to the child in the case of a hypoglycaemia reaction. Please allow students who are diabetes to snack if they need to.\n<br><br>\n<b>Red Emergency Medical Cards<\/b>\n<br>\nAny child suffering from one or more of the above medical conditions or indeed any other special medical condition will be issued with a red card giving a brief description of their\ncondition. This acts as a red alert to the teacher and permits the child to administer medication or, in the case of a diabetic child, eat a snack without leaving the classroom. In the case of an emergency, the child should not be allowed to leave the classroom alone. The school nurse should be summoned to the classroom to assist.\n<br><br>\nFirst Aid Boxes: First Aid boxes are located throughout the school and it is the responsibility of each section of the school to ensure they are fully stocked.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b9e3642 exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"b9e3642\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><h3 class=\"elementor-image-box-title\">Field trips<\/h3><p class=\"elementor-image-box-description\">\u25cf The Educational Visits co-coordinator will supply First Aid Kits to staff when taking  children off site if\/when no First Aid facilities are available at the destination.<br>\n\u25cf He\/she will also ensure that a member of staff is solely responsible for carrying the First  Aid kit and any special medication that children may need to administer during the trip  implementing a Medicines In\/Out tally sheet to be signed by both the child and the  teacher.<br>\n\u25cf It is the parents\u2019\/guardians\u2019 responsibility to provide all medication in its original  packaging, with the child\u2019s name clearly labeled and with clear instructions on the required dosage.\n<br><br>\nThe school has the health and safety committee which regularly meets and reviews the health and safety provisions at school and introduces necessary changes as and when needed.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c9d4882 e-con-full elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-hidden-laptop elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-mobile e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"c9d4882\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" id=\"registration-and-refund-policy\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4c4165c exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4c4165c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Registration and Refund policy<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fd5176f exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"fd5176f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><h3 class=\"elementor-image-box-title\">General Definitions Application fees\u200d<\/h3><p class=\"elementor-image-box-description\">Schools may charge up to AED 500 to process the application of new students.

Students are encouraged to report on what helps them learn and what makes it difficult for them. Teaching is structured to maximise learning opportunities. Activities are planned in accordance with the following principles:\n<br><br>\n<b>The teaching: <\/b>builds on previous learning and is instigated\/designed by our knowledge of the learner gives pupils the 'big idea' and purpose of the work being pursued makes success criteria explicit and indicates what the next step in the learning will be. Success criteria based on the key aspects of learning are used to audit the learning. Success criteria are essential and are shared in the classroom through lessons. The teacher explains the success criteria, and why the activity is important in achieving the learning objectives.<br>\n<b>Planning: <\/b>The foundation for curricular development is the School Development Plan, developed through a process of collaboration between staff, and approved by Section Heads and the Principal.\n<br><br>\nAt GIIS, we are committed to following the programmes of study as required by the CBSE, India and the Ministry of Education, UAE.\n<br><br>\nPlanning takes place before the beginning of the academic session in April every year.\n<br><br>\nImplementation is monitored throughout the year through a variety of mechanisms.\n<br><br>\n<b>Senior Leaders have a variety of roles to play.<\/b>\n<br><br>\nThese include:\n<br>\n\u25cf Taking the lead in policy development and the production of schemes of work designed  to ensure progression and continuity in their subject throughout the school<br>\n\u25cf Supporting colleagues in their development and implementation of the scheme of work, and in assessment and record-keeping activities<br>\n\u25cf Monitoring progress on their levels and advising the Principal to certain action needed<br>\n\u25cf Taking responsibility for the purchase and organisation of central resources for their subjects<br>\n\u25cf Using release time to support colleagues<br>\n\u25cf Keeping up-to-date through reading and attending relevant courses.\n<br><br>\nTeachers ensure breadth and balance to the curriculum and endeavour to make use of cross curricular opportunities to enhance learning.\n<br><br>\nThe learning environment will be managed in such a way that it facilitates different styles of learning.

We use the school curriculum maps and medium term planning drawn from the CBSE curriculum to guide our teaching.

Extra support is given in the classroom from learning support assistants. Additionally, advice is sought from relevant external support agencies when and where the need demands it. (See Special Educational Needs Policy)\n<br><br>\nTeachers set individual targets each term per child in all core subjects -English, Mathematics, Science, Arabic, Islamic studies and UAE Social studies.

The school will report interventions along with progress to parents\/guardians regularly.\n<br><br>\nIf a concern still remains, a recommendation can be made to the Principal for retention. If a child is retained, there must be evidence of a learning plan put in place that clearly sets out the targeted interventions with necessary adaptations of effective instructional strategies and measurable success criteria to meet the student\u2019s needs.

Learning spelling words and completing math worksheets are examples of this type of homework.\n<br><br>\n<b>Preparation Home learning<\/b>\n<br>\n\u200dPreparation assignments prepare students for upcoming lessons or assessments. Reading a chapter in preparation for discussion, pre-tests, and surveys are examples of preparation home learning.\n<br><br>\n<b>Extension Home learning<\/b>\n<br>\n\u200dExtension home learning helps students take what they learn in class and connect it with real life. It requires students to transfer specific skills and concepts to new situations. Journal writing and conducting experiments at home are examples of extension home learning.\n<br><br>\n<b>Creative Home learning<\/b>\n<br>\n\u200dCreative home learning helps students integrate multiple concepts and promotes the development of critical thinking and problem solving skills. This type of home learning often takes the form of open-ended questions and long term projects that allow students a choice.\n<br><br>\n<b>Vacation Home learning Guidelines<\/b>\n<br>\n\u200dHome learning given during vacation needs to be completed by ward (with the guidance of parents) and returned to the school on the first day school reopens or the date assigned.
