Supervisor Expectations

If you have any questions, please talk to our office staff.

 

  1. We ask that all parents and visitors adhere to the OCS dress code.

  2. Arrive 5-10 minutes before the start of recess. You must sign in at the office and get a badge and whistle.

  3. Please make sure you are always paying attention to the children. Keep chatting with other supervisors to a minimum.

  4. Walk around the playground and field, always listening and watching students.

  5. When a student is having a hard time following the rules, have them sit out for a reasonable amount of time. If disobedience continues, please send the student to the office.

  6. When an injury occurs, send them to the office.

  7. If there are any other issues that you don’t feel equipped to deal with, please call the office.

  8. Blow the whistle at the end of recess. Students are expected to line up quietly until their teacher comes to pick them up.

  9. When recess is over, return to the office to sign out, return your badge and whistle, and log service hours. Failure to log your own hours will result in insufficient service hours for the quarter and your account may be charged.
