ERD Parent Smore, Week of 1-16-23
ER Dickson Elementary School

Thank you for reading our weekly Smore newsletter!
Schools will be closed on Monday, January 16 in remembrance of Martin Luther King, Jr and his good works. ❤
Important Notes
-Please be on time to school. We are having way too many tardies every morning. Dropoff begins at 7:15, then traffic is much lighter between 7:20 and 7:35. The tardy bell rings at 7:45.
-Please be considerate and refrain from sending food that contains nuts if your child's teacher sends notice that there is a child in the class that is allergic to nuts. This includes Nutella.
Please put your phones away during carpool! So far this year we've had one car run into a fence, one that ended up on the curb, and one of our teachers was naearly hit by a vehicle. Please think of the children and their safety.
