Busses will be identified by a number which students must know. All students will be assigned a seat on his/her bus. Good conduct is expected; discipline issues will be handled through a bus referral/parent reporting system. All questions should be directed to the Transportation Department, at (908) 284-7154. CAFETERIA/RECESS Your child may buy lunch, or bring lunch from home. Parents/guardians of children buying lunch are encouraged to purchase lunch in advance. A check made payable to “Flemington-Raritan Board of Education” can be sent to the school in an envelope with your child. Indicate your child’s name, teacher’s name and student PIN/ID on the envelope. Free or reduced price meals are available to those who qualify and applications are sent home early in the school year. Applications are also available in the main office. We are requesting that ALL families complete and return the Free/Reduced Lunch paperwork, as it aids the district in receiving state funding. Robert Hunter School students participate in lunch and recess for 20 minutes each. Recess When weather permits, students will go outside for recess and are expected to follow these rules: Students will bring necessary clothing outside and will not be permitted to return to classrooms once lunch/recess has begun. Food and drink are not permitted outside. Good sportsmanship is required at all times. Equipment is provided by the school. Please do not send equipment from home. Games involving physical contact are not permitted. Rough play is not acceptable. Students must keep within the boundaries of the blacktop and playground areas. Students will line up when the whistle is blown and return playground equipment to its proper place. Students will follow the directions of the adults supervising the playground. There are four different types of recess at Robert Hunter. The type of recess selected depends on the wind, temperature, precipitation, and conditions of the blacktop. Outdoor Recess: Full 20 minutes of outdoor recess; Students are allowed to play with all recess equipment and/or on the playground. Mini Recess: Students are in the classroom for 10 minutes of indoor recess (group game) and then go outside for 10 minutes of outdoor recess with limited equipment. This type of recess would be selected on a cold winter day, with limited wind and fair ground conditions.
