Truitt Middle School
DECEMBER 2021
A NOTE FROM MS. GARCIA
Dear Parents and Guardians,
I can't believe the semester is almost over! We are truly enjoying your students here at Truitt as we prepare for the holiday break. Over the next two weeks, there are several dress up days for students and staff. Please see the list of dates with dress up themes below.
Please take some time over the holidays to monitor your child's social media accounts. We are noticing that postings on social media are causing issues at school.
Please read the car rider information below. The safety of our students is always our first priority. It is important that our procedures for our car rider line are followed.
My hope is that you all can safely spend time with your families during this holiday season.
Sincerely,
Yvette Garcia
IMPORTANT CAR RIDER INFORMATION
The safety of our students is our first priority. Please make sure you are following these important car rider procedures.
*All cars need to move as forward as possible into the drop off zone before students unload.
*Do not let students out on the street. This is not safe for your student.
*Please make a right turn only when exiting the parking lot after dropping off your student. Left turns are not allowed and hold up the car rider line.
*When picking up your student at 2:50, please get in the car rider line. Students are walking in between cars and it is not safe.
*Please do not drive on the wrong side of the road to bypass everyone in the car rider line. It is dangerous to all drivers in cars and students on our buses.
Thank you for keeping our students safe.
