Helpful details to support your child’s first days and daily school life.
During the first days of school, one parent or guardian may stay to support your child’s adjustment. This helps children feel secure as they become familiar with the environment and routines.
To help keep our classrooms clean and safe, socks are required for any adult entering the classroom.
Children should wear comfortable clothing suitable for active play. Please bring a clean pair of indoor shoes for classroom use.
To help keep our learning spaces clean and comfortable for everyone, outdoor shoes are not worn inside classrooms.
Inside the school, children and adults wear indoor shoes or socks only.
To help children feel settled and to keep the school day running smoothly, families are asked to arrive and pick up on time. Children are released only with the Authorization Card issued upon enrollment.
The Authorization Card must be presented at pick-up. If the card is not available, the school will contact the parent or guardian for verification, which may take additional time.
To help keep traffic flowing along the main road during peak hours, families are asked to avoid staying longer than necessary during drop-off and pick-up.
In the Philippines, class suspensions may be declared due to weather conditions, public safety advisories, or government announcements. At Color Beams, decisions about class continuity are made carefully, with children’s safety and well-being as the highest priority.
We aim to keep school open whenever conditions are safe, especially for young children who benefit from routine and consistency. Decisions are based on official advisories as well as actual conditions in and around the school.
Families may always choose to keep their child at home if they feel conditions are unsafe.
Automatic and No Class Days
Situations Requiring Assessment
Classes may be assessed for suspension in situations such as:
Weather signal levels are considered as part of the assessment, but class decisions are not based on signal numbers alone. Local conditions around the school are carefully evaluated.
How We Decide
Decisions are based on:
If conditions are safe and staff are able to report to school, classes may be held, particularly after several consecutive days of suspension.
Whenever possible, class announcements are shared around 7:00 a.m., after assessing updated weather conditions and local advisories. Conditions in our immediate area may differ from announcements issued the night before.
Families are informed through official school communication channels. No make-up classes are held for cancellations due to weather or other unexpected events.
