Student Safety

School Safety
A number of safety concerns have presented themselves in the past few weeks. Thank you for remembering these few guidelines which help keep students safe.
1. Drop off supervision begins at 8:10
Students being dropped off prior to 8:10 are left unsupervised and often end up in unsafe situations around the school (on the playground or the front steps of the school) without an adult present. Please do not drop off your children prior to 8:10.

2. Staff Parking lot should not be used for pick up and drop off
The back parking lot is not a safe place for a parent to be parking, picking up, or dropping off students. This is an issue at the beginning and end of the day when a lot of foot traffic is in that area. While I understand we have many parking spots potentially available, cars pulling into the parking lot, parking, and moving among students who are walking or riding bikes is not safe. We have had a number of cars pulling in or backing up and have come close to students. Please do not pull into the staff parking lot in the morning or at the end of the day in order to keep students safe.
