A schedule provided for you (click here for an example), as will a name tag (DOG Tag), and a Watch DOG vest or t-shirt.

Bring a couple bucks for lunch and snacks (Coffee and a soda machine are available in the faculty lounge).  

   
 Q. Why do I need to wear a Watch DOG vest or t-shirt?
 A. Watch DOGS wear the official vests and t-shirts for two reasons.

First, this apparel separates us from other visitors who may be in the school. 

Second, to the children, staff, and other parents it establishes you as an official overseeing the children.  

   
 Q. Should I shut off my cellular phone?
 A. YES.  Cellular phones, PDA's, and other every other form of electronic leash can cause a disruption in class as well as taking your attention away from the students.
