School Guidelines

Dogs On School Grounds

At Gray Elementary there are students who have allergies to dogs, or have developed a general fear of this pet. We ask the following guidelines be maintained:

  • Dogs should be kept on a leash between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.
  • Dogs should remain 30 ft from doorways or entrances into the school

Peanuts/ Tree Nuts At Gray Elementary

Gray Elementary is a peanut aware school. We understand that children have a specific appetite, but we ask that parents try and avoid putting peanuts/ tree nuts in their child’s lunch.  There are some classes, with students who have an anaphylactic allergy, where peanuts/ tree nuts are not allowed.

If you need to send peanuts/ tree nuts in your child’s lunch, we kindly ask that you inform the classroom teacher, so we can appropriately monitor and maintain the learning area.

Scents At Gray Elementary

Gray Elementary is a scent aware school. We kindly ask that people refrain from wearing any perfumes or colognes and scented products, as we have staff and students who have scent allergies.

School Volunteers – Forms and Criminal Record Checks

 Are you volunteering at our school this year? If so, please visit the school district’s new Volunteering webpage (Volunteering – Delta School District) and ensure you have completed all required steps, including obtaining a current Criminal Record Check (CRC). As required by law, Criminal Record Checks must be renewed at least every five years. We appreciate your understanding that these checks are both a legal requirement and an important part of our commitment to maintaining a safe environment for all students.

There is no cost to complete your CRC through the district’s online process.

The Volunteering webpage also includes links to the required volunteer forms for anyone who has not yet submitted them to the school office this school year. If you have already submitted your volunteer forms, you do not need to complete them again.

Please note that submitting volunteer forms does not replace the requirement to complete a Criminal Record Check. All volunteers should ensure both requirements have been met before participating in volunteer activities.
