Week of August 19, 2018
High Expectations:
Every Scholar, Every Day
A Word from Principal Haynes
Greetings Parents,
We survived our First Mini Week of School!!! Thank you for your patience with the new security measures. While it may present a minor inconvenience, please know and understand that everything is done with the safety and security of our scholars and staff first and foremost.
Parents, I need you to pay close attention to the car line rules. YOU CANNOT MOVE INTO THE OUTSIDE LANE AND CUT OVER. You also, CANNOT CALL YOUR CHILD OVER TO GET IN THE CAR IN THE OUTSIDE LANE--THAT IS DANGEROUS!!
DO NOT walk up to the K/1 car rider section and request your child. If you are going to walk onto campus, your child is a walker. Your child will not be released to you that way so please send in a note to your child's teacher to change the dismissal to walker if that is what you want to do.
The entrance gates close and lock promptly at 3:30PM each day. Please do not wait until the last minute to get into the car line. Once the gate is closed, it will not be reopened. You will need to go to the walker entrance by ASP, give your child's name to the Campus Monitor to determine your child's location. Once your child's location has been confirmed, you will be able to walk to that location to retrieve the child.
Wishing you an AMAZING and BLESSED week!!
Principal Haynes
