Safety Reminders
- Please remember that if you are dropping your child off or picking them up in the car line, you should remain in your car and in the car line. If there is foot traffic and car traffic it becomes difficult to monitor.
- If you need to drop your child off or pick them up at preschool, please call the main office at 556-5321. Without a reception area in that building, assistance isn't available during the school day. We're happy to help you at the main building.
- If you need to change your child's afternoon transportation, please make sure that you contact the main office before noon. Mistakes and confusion ensue when there are last-minute changes. This also contributes to delays in the car line and with our buses.
Thank you all so much for helping us to keep our students safe!
