Notes from the Principal
Jefferson Spring Concert: A Blast from the Past
Reminders:
- Please make sure your child arrives to school on time Friday, June 3rd.
- Doors for the concert will open at 9:15 am and 1:15 pm.
- Please help your child "dress for success" for the concert performance. Due to the warm temperatures at this time of year, please encourage your child not to wear a heavy sweatshirt/hoodie.
- Families can choose to pick their child/ren up at the conclusion of the concert near 3:00 pm. Students will not be released to families prior to the conclusion of all grade levels performing at the concert.
- Families will need to sign each child out at each child's classroom at the conclusion of the concert.

5th Grade Clap Out
Drop-Off and Pick-Up Reminders
1) The drop-off zone on Manila is meant for a quick drop. Students should be ready to exit your vehicle as soon as you pull up to the curb. If your child needs additional time, please pull to a side street to park and walk your child to school property.
2) Please use your turn signals to help other drivers and students know your plans as you are driving.
3) Students should exit the vehicle on the sidewalk side of the vehicle.
4) Adults should NOT exit the vehicle during drop-off.
Before School
We also ask that students not cut through the parking lot on the front of the building, but instead cross at the crosswalks. Students cannot be seen cutting through the cars and we don't want a child to get hit.
