North Rome Christian School normally follows the same delays and closings (due to inclement weather) as Athens, Northeast, Sayre, Towanda, and Wyalusing school districts. Radio and television announcements will be given as to our schedules. Tune in to WPEL, WHGL, and WNEP. The quickest and most accurate resource is sycamore education.

Fire drills will be conducted periodically. Students are to leave the building immediately under a teacher’s direction. If a student sees a fire, it should be reported to a faculty member promptly. DO NOT try to put a fire out yourself. Your personal safety and that of other per-sons is more important that the building.

In the event that there is a need for a nurse, the school will call in a registered nurse. Each year the Northeast Bradford School nurses come to do regular eye, dental and routine examinations as required by the State.

Lockers are for the convenience of our students but do not become their personal property. School administration has the right to inspect lockers at any time, All items on the outside of the lockers need to conform to Christian standards, and the insides are to be kept clean.

Items left unattended at the end of the day may be located in our lost and found. Please ask at the school office for access to the lost and found box. Lost and found items will be disposed of on a bi-weekly basis.

North Rome Christian School does not have a cafeteria. Students are to pack a lunch each day. Please make sure that this is a nutritious meal that is sufficient to make your child comfortable throughout the day. We ask that each family send in a can of food to be kept in the cupboard to be used in the event that a lunch is forgotten. Occasion-ally, hot lunches are available for students; menus will be sent home monthly. Students in grades K-5 have a time in mid-morning to have fruit break. We ask that this snack always be healthy (i.e. fruit, crackers, granola bars), not sweets or desserts.

Books and instructional supplies are usually supplied by North Rome Christian School. Small designated items (i.e. crayons, pencils, note-book paper) which are specified at the beginning of the school year are the student’s responsibility. North Rome Christian School utilizes all allocation of loan of text and materials through the Pennsylvania Department of Education. In the event that there is excessive abuse or damage to books and/or other school property, that student is responsible for all costs of repair or replacement and may receive further disciplinary actions.

Members of the student council apply to be on the North Rome Christian School student council. The student council will meet periodically to discuss matters of the school. They will work together with teachers and administration to go over concerns and ideas that they have. Student council is made up of members from each grade of the middle and high school.
