As we finish putting the supplies away, freshening up the building and setting up the classrooms, you should have received a packet regarding our Orientation Week schedule beginning September 13, 2010.

The “Smiley Face” sign will appear outside the door at 9:00 a.m. to let the children know that it is time to come inside. All children must stay in cars until it is time to enter the building. Please refer to the Handbook for specific directions regarding drop-off/pick-up safety.

-  Be cautious when approaching the circle.  If you see any children moving anywhere in the loop, please wait in the road until you are safely waved in.

- Turn off engines while the children are moving.  Please do not start your car until the all set wave is given.

- Keep children in the cars until you see a smiley face.

- When waiting on the street, please be mindful of any mailboxes or driveways and that you do not block them.

- If your four-legged friend is making the car ride to school,  please keep Fido safely tucked in the car while you are in the loop.  We have many children fearful of dogs.

- Please do not block the yellow crosswalk.

- Never back out of the circle or pull around a car that is still buckling a child in.

Thank you again for a great start!  We are excited to be on this journey of growing and learning with all of your children.
