Hello Foster Families

Dear Foster's Finest,

I wanted to extend a thank you to our entire school community for their help in making our drop-off and dismissal process work. It has been a successful week as a result of people following the procedure, almost without a hitch. I cannot stress enough the importance of following the procedures, especially the following:

Do not park in the front PARKING area and pick-up your child as a walker. We are merging busses and cars in the loop. Our car loop process is working, and parents are not waiting for an extended period of time for their child. If you want to pick-up in a vehicle, please let us know and we will have your child ready to be picked up.
Stay in single file. Do not pull out of the loop line to go around cars that are waiting for their child. Your vehicle should remain off until we ask you to turn on your vehicle and move together, once all of the students are in their vehicles.
Please follow the directions of the crossing guard. Cars exit to the right at the end of the loop. DO NOT IGNORE the directions of the crossing guard and our staff.

It has been a very successful week and I am thankful to have everyone working together to keep our students SAFE. I want to extend a very big thank you to our staff for helping make our first week such a success!

Wishing you all a cooler weekend and a cooler September!

Mr. Scheufele
