Guidelines to Facilitate this Process
1. BE KIND TO OUR NEIGHBORS: Please do not block neighbors’ driveways at any time. Horns should only be used to prevent accidents, or for emergency use only.
2. PARKING: To those who have school business to take care of or would like to walk to the classroom, please find parking at the Presbyterian church or on one of the side streets, that is not Community Street, & walk. Please, note that the south side of Community Street is a loading and unloading zone during school hours. The driver may be ticketed if not in their vehicle.
3. NO PARKING ON COMMUNITY: We kindly request that no one uses Community Street to park your car between 7:00 and 7:45 am or 2:45 – 3:15 pm, as this interrupts the pickup and drop-off flow.
4. CARING: Arrive early so as not to be in a hurry. Avoid accidents or confrontations by planning to arrive earlier or later to time your pick up and drop off during less busy times.
5. SUPERVISION: The teachers’ assigned morning and afternoon supervision are instructed to NOT engage in answering questions or social interaction. Their eyes and ears must be on our arriving and departing students. We ask that each family respect the fact that 12 | Page teachers have strict orders. Please do not be offended if a teacher refuses to respond to your quick question out of your car window.
6. PATIENCE: Please know in advance that there will be delays when 1.200 students (elementary and high school) are being dropped off and picked up. Plan for them and be prepared to expect delays.
If for any reason, you are not able to pick up your child at your regularly scheduled time afterschool, please CALL the main office so they can alert the teacher to send the child to daycare. Teachers may not see notes sent on Edmodo or E-mail sent the day-of, as they are busy teaching during the day.
