Dismissal Delay
Friday, March 9, 2018
Good Afternoon, Peirce Families-
On Friday, March 9, 2018, the decision was made to delay dismissal by five minutes. This was in response to a group of non-Peirce students who were congregating on the back lot and behaving in an aggressive manner. In order to ensure the safety of all Peirce students, we decided to postpone dismissal until 3:05 PM. This allowed sufficient time for Chicago Police Officers to arrive and support us in escorting the students who do not attend Peirce off of the premises.
Keeping our students safe is our number one priority. Nonetheless, we apologize for any inconvenience or confusion that this delay may have caused.
Sincerely,
Talyia Riemer
Assistant Principal, Peirce School
