Safety Tips
Walk your Wheels
Bicycle and scooter rides are a lot of fun and we love that our students are willing to have fun. However, while your child is in our care, we are asking that every student walk their wheels on the sidewalks adjacent to the school. We have a lot of feet criss-crossing to and from the school when they are leaving their mode of transportation (Buses, vans, and Cars) for this reason, we want you to walk your wheels to avoid any crashes or crushed toes.
Nature Care
Trees are a part of nature, however, at Clairemont we would love for us to show love towards our trees. We want you to admire and be inspired by the nature around us. We are asking for all students to show love towards our trees by staying off of them. Climbing the trees at Clairemont Elementary is not allowed.

Clairemont CREW School Routines
- School begins at 8 am. If your student arrives after 8 am then you will need to check them in at the school's main office.
- We were so excited to see everyone at the Meet and Greet, however, we do understand that the whole Clairemont CREW was not able to attend this exciting moment. During the meet and greet parents were asked to complete a student health form. Please fill out this form at your earliest convenience and have your child return it to their homeroom teacher at Clairemont Elementary. If you did not receive a copy of this form, one will be made available on August 8th in your student's Thursday folder.
- We feel that your child's health is very important to us here at Clairemont Elementary. If you have not called or emailed Nurse Cox please do so if your child has any allergies or other health concerns. Nurse Cox's contact information: chuff-cox@csdecatur.net or (404) 370-4450.
- Parents, beginning August 8th a Thursday folder will be sent home with your child each week. Please review the contents of the folder and return any requested information to your child's homeroom teacher.
