The Week of October 29th
A MESSAGE FROM PRINCIPAL BAME
Dear Laurel Park Families,
As we say goodbye to October and welcome in November, please take a moment to plan ahead for Election Day on November 6th. Please remember that WCPSS has issued a 2 hour delay day for all students. We will open doors for students at 10:45 am on November 6th. A few notes to share:
- Administration is working closely with our local Board of Elections team to ensure all voters enter and exit through our cafeteria door (near red picnic tables). Voters will not be allowed to walk into our hallways or any other section of the building.
- Administration will be stationed in the cafeteria during election day. Students who need to purchase lunch will have a secure line to buy their lunch and return to their classrooms. All students will eat lunch in their classrooms on this day.
- Prepare for more traffic than normal during arrival and dismissal. Although we have set aside specific parking spaces for voters, we do anticipate a longer wait time.
- If you see any activity that concerns you, please report your concern to our front desk as soon as possible.
Important Dates:
- 10/31/18 ~ Pajama Day for all students
- 11/2/18 ~ Interim Reports for Tracks 1 & 2 go home
- 11/5/18 ~ Cultural Arts Assembly (all students - Science focus)
