No, you do not have to pay for membership; you can sign up to be included in the PTO communications about events and programs, but it will not count toward the membership drive and you will not be allowed to vote at PTO meetings. You can sign up here by checking the box at the bottom:

 Student Arrival and Dismissal General Info (specific info for the first day of school is further below): For all days students should arrive at school after 7:50 a.m.   Outdoor supervision of children starts at that time. When the first bell rings at 8:07, students are to stop playing and line up. By the second bell at 8:10, students should be in their class line standing quietly. All parents/guardians should leave the class line area at this time. Dismissal begins at 2:20 for walkers. 

 The circular driveway is for buses and daycare vans to drop-off and pick-up students only.  All other vehicles must drive around the back of the school to drop off and pick up students.  Students can not be dropped off on Nausauket Road before school. There is no parking on Nausauket Road before and after school.  If you are dropping off your child in the morning behind the school, please pull into the right lane near the sidewalk (where the basketball court is). Once your child exits the vehicle you must leave. This area is for dropping off only. You can not leave your car parked in this drop-off zone. If you are staying with your child until the bell rings, please park in the parent parking lot or the back field (though drop off is best as it will help with congestion). 

**If your child is arriving late for school, after 8:10, you must accompany them to the school office where you will sign your child in, stating the reason for their tardiness.

Gaga Ball is a super fun game played inside of an octagon-shaped enclosure known as a "pit" where a playground ball is hit with the hands, with the goal of hitting other's legs below the knee to eliminate them from the game; the last person inside wins. 

At Robertson, usually "Recess Rules" are used so it is more fun for all:

 Each game starts with about 10 kids inside the pit and the rest lined up next to the entrance cut-out. As each player is eliminated, they leave the pit and a new player enters; this way everyone gets a turn and are not waiting long to play!

The official Robertson Gaga Rules are:

•  All players start with one hand touching a wall of the pit until after the 3rd bounce of the ball
• The game begins by throwing the ball into the air so it can bounce 3 times
• Players scream 'GA' at each bounce for 2 bounces, and then 'BALL' on the third bounce, after which the ball is in play
• Once the ball is in play, any player can hit the ball with an open or closed hand, but cannot touch it twice unless it hits another person or a wall
• Players cannot hold the ball
• If a ball touches a player below the knee (even if the player hits themselves) they are out and must leave the pit 
• If a player is hit above the knees, the play continues
• If a ball is caught in the air, the player who hit the ball is out
• If the ball goes out of the pit the last player to touch the ball is eliminated
• Using the walls of the octagon to aid in jumping is not allowed
