Dear Families,

As we move into the fall and winter months, we must readjust our parent pick up procedures. Very soon, we will be faced with colder temperatures and possibly snow. Since we have so many students being picked up at the end of each day, it is no longer safe to keep them lined up on the sidewalk. It is also becoming a very dangerous situation for the many cars waiting to pick up along Scotchtown Avenue.

Beginning Monday, October 29, we are asking any parent picking up a child to park his or her car in the parking lot and enter the building at the side entrance by the loop after the buses have pulled away, which is at approximately 3:25 p.m. It is very important to wait until after the buses have pulled away to park your car and enter the building. We have had a very long line of cars waiting along Scotchtown Avenue which is causing a dangerous situation.

Upon entering the building, you will be greeted by an aide who will ask you to sign out your child, show identification and wait while your child is brought to you.

These changes are being made for your child’s safety as well as your own. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Sincerely,
Daria Murphy, Principal & Melissa Lawson, Assistant Principal
