All secure entrance and visitor check-in procedures remain in place through the main office, and we appreciate your patience while you are waiting in the office.
All visitors will be required to show ID upon entering the front doors. In addition, an ID will be required so that we may verify a background check on file, and issue a visitor badge.
Visitors to our school will not be permitted in hallways during arrival and dismissal times, and parents will not be allowed to walk students to class. *Parents may choose to walk their student to class on the 1st day of school. Kindergarten parents can walk their student to the cafeteria.
Background checks may take several days/weeks to process. Please be mindful of the length of processing prior to scheduling your school visit.
Visitors or Parents should schedule visits in advance with students teacher to visit classroom during instructional times.
Visitors or Parents will not be allowed to attend recess sessions.
Every adult in the building must wear a school-issued ID at all times.
We will continue to evaluate and adjust our safety procedures as new prevention and protection measures are implemented. If you have any other questions regarding school safety, please feel free to contact me.
Thank you for understanding and for your support! It is going to be a wonderful year at Liberty Park Elementary!
Your Principal,
Jason Brooks
