Eagles
Welcome Back!
First Day of School Schedule
Doors open at 8:30 am.
Class starts at 8:45 am
School dismisses at 12:10 pm. No lunch Served!
CCE Changes
Due to parking concerns, only Kindergarten students can be accompanied by an adult into the building. All other students must be dropped off at the front door, through the car loop, or off the bus.
CCE Cafe
Due to the number of students at CCE, family members who want to eat lunch with their child are able to do so in what we call the CCE Cafe. This is a space across the hall from the cafeteria where family members and their student can enjoy a private lunch.
The CCE Cafe will open officially on Monday, August 26th.
Additionally, please note that the Cafe will be closed every week on Wednesday.
Reminders
If you are dropping your student off at school please DO NOT pull into the bus loop lot. This is a safety concern for students and families as well as a timing concern for the busses.
Car Loop
Please be patient the first few days of school as the veteran families remember how the loop works and the new families work to learn how we do things at CCE.
Afternoon Car Loop Instructions
As a school, student safety is always our number one priority. To that end, in an effort to provide the most functional and safe car loop program possible we decided seeking outside support would be beneficial.
Last February we coordinated with the Shawnee police department to gather data driven and time specific information about how our afternoon car loop functions. Sergeant Steve Walsh provided our team with drone footage of one days' afternoon car loop, measurements of our back parking lot, thoughts on our current practices, and what we feel is a fantastic suggestion on how we can improve the quality and safety of our afternoon car loop.
Here are the instructions for using the car loop:
- upon entering the back parking lot it will be important for cars to follow the placement of all cones - these cones will guide the flow of traffic
- Sergeant Walsh determined there is enough room in our back parking lot that we can create three lines of cars (line A, B, C) to allow more cars in that space at one time. Think of Chic Filet or McDonalds and the multiple lines.
- As cars fill in these lines it will be important that they are filled from front to back (ABC, ABC, ABC)
- Once dismissal starts, a staff member will direct you when it's your time to move forward in the ABC pattern.
This has been a game changer for our afternoon dismissal! Thank you for helping us keep our kiddos safe!
