First Week
Arrival is going really well. Thank you for following the traffic patterns and for helping your children know where to go each morning.
Dismissal was a bit hairy yesterday for our buses and traffic at the front of the school, but it went so much better today. This will continue to smooth out and go much more quickly if we all help each other. Here are some tips to speed things up for all:
-Make sure your children know the after-school plan (what they are doing and how they are getting there). Talk with your child each morning about the plan, or you can even put a luggage tag on the backpack of younger students whose plans change throughout the week.
-Bus riders should know which bus they ride-- Bus 1 (serving mostly Oak Brook) or Bus 2 (serving mostly Orchard Brook).
-Drivers picking students up at the front of the building should have the student's last name posted in the window. We will radio for your child as soon as we see the name. If we can see the name as you're entering the parking lot, we can usually have your child waiting for you (or at least on the way to you) when you get up to the sidewalk. We have to wait for the no-name cars to get to the sidewalk, find out who is getting picked up, and then radio inside for the student. It's that piece that really slows things down for us.
