To ensure the safety of the children while they are at school, the school gates are locked and the only entrance to school is through the school office. All adults and visiting minors must sign in at the school office and wear visitor tags to enter the school grounds during school hours. These badges must be picked up at the school office and be visible. The gates are unlocked just prior to dismissal and are relocked at the end of official supervised pick-up time. Entry to the schoolyard after 3:05 p.m. will be through the Haskell Entrance. St Cyril will consider all threats to inflict serious harm to self or others as serious. The school will respond to any statements or behaviors of a threatening nature, any behaviors by individuals that might pose a threat to the well being of students, staff or others and any possession of weapons. St. Cyril has an obligation to keep our school safe and will treat these matters seriously. This is not an area for practical jokes or offhand comments. All potential concerns will be investigated thoroughly. If parents become aware of a threatening situation, they must immediately report it to a teacher or principal. We thank you in advance for working with us by supporting the above safety measures that are in the best interest of our students.
