The Edwardsburg Primary Connection
Primary Family Newsletter - September 10, 2021
First Week Jitters
This week our students learned what it means to be an Eddie at Edwardsburg Primary. We practiced being Safe, Respectful and Responsible in the classroom, the hallways, the bathrooms, the cafeteria, the playground and the pickup areas. You can help us by reminding your student(s) daily to be Safe, Respectful and Responsible at school.

Breakfast & Lunch
Morning Drop-off
- Please do not block the crosswalk in the drive. We need our students to have that space to safely cross the drive.
- When you exit the drop-off lane, please watch your speed. Our littles ones are unpredictable and may try to dart across the driveway.
- Do not congregate by the front door. It makes it very difficult for our students to make it into the building when there are adults on the sidewalk by the door.
- When you feel comfortable, drive through the lane instead of parking. Having your child exit the vehicle and walk to the doors on their own helps to build independence.
Afternoon Pickup
Due to ongoing traffic issues, there will likely be some changes made to our procedures over the next couple of months. Please watch for updates.
Please help us have a safe dismissal by:
- Ensuring that your child's dismissal tag is on their bag and the person picking them up has the corresponding tag.
- If your student walks home, please let the office know that someone is walking to pick them up. They will be dismissed from the front office.
- Students on the green fence are picked up through the car lane. We understand that it is slow right now, it takes time for little ones to learn the system and to quickly make it out to their cars. Plus their principal is still learning everyone's names, so she isn't very fast either. :)
- Students picked up at the green fence walk up must wait in a line and Mrs. Devenney will check tags to dismiss students. If you do not have your tag, you may be redirected to the office to verify your identify. Parents must wait at the cone barrier for their student.
- DO NOT park and walk over to the green fence pickup lane to try to take your child. Parents who do this are creating a safety hazard for everyone.
Thank you for helping create a safe dismissal for our students.
