Safety Reminders
- All visitors need to bring their driver's license when they come in the building. We scan your license and give you a visitor's badge to wear while you are in the building.
- We also will check your ID if you come to pick up a child during school hours or are new to carpool. Please don't be offended. It is a way to keep the students safe.
- Classroom doors will remain locked throughout the day. This includes the gym and cafeteria.
- Outside doors will remain locked at all times. If you need to come into the school, go to door 1 and ring the buzzer.
- We have over 30 cameras inside and outside our building.
- We require background checks for any parent or guardian who wants to attend a field trip or help in the classroom.
- We will have monthly fire, tornado and/or ALICE drills. We will send home more information about ALICE drills in the September newsletter.
- Due to safety and COVID, we do not allow lunch or recess visitors.
- All birthday treats need to be from an "approved" kitchen such as Walmart or Kroger. We cannot take homemade treats.
- Please send water bottles for your child just as we have the past few years due to COVID. Please do not send anything other than water in the bottles. Red liquids stain furniture and carpet and are really sticky if they spill. Water is the healthiest and best choice.
Thank you for your help keeping all of our students and staff safe each day. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact Ms. Rudolf in the office at 260-786-3021.

Car Riders If you are bringing your child to school, please pull all the way around the circle drive. Also, for safety reasons, make sure your child gets in and out of the car on the sidewalk side. After school, students will wait in the building until a staff member calls for them. Another staff member will bring them to your car. Please make sure your child can buckle him/herself into the car seat. If they cannot, please pull into a parking spot to help them get buckled. For student safety, do not pass cars in the circle area. | Arrival and Dismissal Times
