Neighborhood Safety
As a neighborhood school, we have many students who walk and ride bicycles daily. We thank you for the many ways our families contribute to a safe neighborhood including the following:
- Crossing President Street at Illinois Street with the Crossing Guard.
- Crossing all intersections in crosswalks and looking carefully both ways before crossing.
- Keeping all vehicle traffic for morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up in the fenced off lane on Willow Street.
- Wearing bicycle helmets when riding bicycles.
As a school community, we will continue to monitor the pick-up and drop-off process, share safety reminders with students and parents, and partner with community agencies such as the Wheaton Police Department, World Relief and Northwestern Medicine's ThinkFirst Bicycle Safety program for Grades 1 & 5. We thank you for being extra sets of eyes and ears in the local community, too.
