PARENTS/GUARDIANS - SAFETY UPDATE - PLEASE READ
There's a popular show on Netflix right now called Squid Game. As a school site, we believe this show isn't suitable for young children. While parents may think their younger students are not being exposed to this show, it's become clear to us this week that several gaming applications and video sharing platforms are making some of the content accessible to children without the knowledge of their parents. As a result, some children are trying to replicate show scenes at school. A simple game of red light, green light or tug of war is not actually harmless because the game in the television show includes "elimination" (death). Unfortunately, we are seeing students playing these games and trying to replicate the show.
Please take a moment to remind your student that playing violent games at school is NOT allowed. We don't want anyone to get hurt, and we believe many of the students don't really understand what they are re-enacting.
Thank you, in advance, for your assistance with this new trend and for reviewing the reminder with your student.
Parking Lot Procedures & Traffic Flow
Please review the front loop procedures...
DROP OFF PROCEDURES
Before arriving at school, parents will conduct a health self-check to ensure the safety of their child(ren) and others.
No student entry prior to 8:40 a.m. (AM) or 10:30 a.m. (PM TK-K). Please do not drop off early as there will be no student supervision.
Cars making the left hand turn into the loop MUST turn left into the parking lot and park. Please do not merge into the student drop off lane.
Only cars making a right hand turn into the loop may pull through the drop-off/pickup lane.
There is one vehicle drop-off location:
Parents will drop off students at the front of the school using the middle lane (the lane closest to the curb will be coned off to prevent merging of lanes) if by car. Leaving the front loop by exiting onto Sutter Home St.
For students with transportation services, the bus will enter campus at the bus loop.
If students ride their bikes or scooters to school, they will park their wheels in the bike area closest to the gate they are entering. Helmets are required.
PICKUP PROCEDURES
Siblings may be together while they wait to be picked up. Older siblings will be asked to wait with the youngest sibling.
- There is one vehicle pick-up location:
Front of the school
Parents will pick up students at the front of the school using the middle lane (the lane closest to the curb will be coned off to prevent merging of lanes) if by car. Leaving the front loop by exiting onto Sutter Home St.
- Bus loop is for students riding the bus ONLY. Please DO NOT use this loop to pick up students. For students with transportation services, aides and teachers accompany students to the boarding location.
Cars making the left hand turn into the loop MUST turn left into the parking lot and park. Please do not merge into the student drop off lane.
Only cars making a right hand turn into the loop may pull through the drop-off/pickup lane.
If students walk home, they are to meet their parents and/or sibling(s) at a predetermined location in front of the school away from all the cones and lines.
If a student is riding a bike or scooter, it is important no one hangs out at the bike rack and everyone continues to social distance as they quickly move off-campus. Helmets are required.
TK/KINDER DROP OFF and PICK UP
- ALL TK/K drop off and pick up will take place at the kinder gate. Please plan to park and walk your student to the gate. Please use the crosswalks to cross the street and through the traffic in the pick up loop.
