MR. LANI'S LATEST!
Parent Updates - March 7, 2021
SAFETY FIRST!
- Car riders must exit on the "school side" of their vehicle or out the right side doors of the car. Exiting out the left side doors exposes our students to oncoming traffic.
- Parents are to stay in the car duing drop off and pick up unless alternate arrangements have been made due to disability.
- Kindergarten students who are walkers must be accompanied by a parent or older sibling upon exiting the building at the end of the day. A staff member will direct students up to the property line if necessary. Kindergartners without supervision will be returned to the school building.
- Kindergarten bus riders must have a tag on their backpack. In addition parents/guardians and older siblings must also have a tag. Kindergarten students may exit the bus with an older sibling to walk home. Kindergarten students will not be allowed to exit the bus on their own and will not be dismissed to an adult who does not have the correct kindergarten bus tag. In these instances, the bus driver will return the Kindergarten student back to the school building and parents will be called.
