IMPORTANT CHANGE IN ARRIVAL AND DISMISSAL

Starting Wednesday, September 13th our arrival and dismissal is changing. The district has asked each school to analize their procedures and decrease the number of entrances/exits. Most schools throughout the district have only 1 or 2 points of entry. Currently NYE has 5. To increase your child’s and our staff’s safety, starting 9.13.23 we will eliminate door 3. This will mean NYE will only have 4 points of entry. Please review this plan with out community during curriculum night. I am asking that everyone adds the map to their presentation.

Moving forward we will follow this plan.

Bus riders – no change. All bus riders will enter and exit through door 13.

Car riders – no change. All car riders will enter and exit through door 11.

Students in our self-contained programs are the ONLY individuals allowed to enter and exit through door 1. The main entrance. Any walkers who attempt to enter or exit through this door will be redirected to the back of the school to door 6.

Walkers – will enter and exit through door 6

If your child is a walker, please plan on meeting them on the blacktop. We ask that ONLY kindergarten parents move/stand towards the door. This will allow our teachers to quickly connect each kindergarten parent with their child. If this impacts your child’s arrival or dismissal, we ask that you talk to your child about the upcoming change. We will also review the change during curriculum night.

Thank you for partnering with us to ensure your child’s safety is the priority.

2nd Reminder - A note from Nurse Kellie

This is a friendly reminder that the State of Illinois requires ALL kindergarteners and new students have an updated physical and immunizations on file at the school they are attending. Please provide the most recent copy of the State of Illinois Certificate of Child Health Examination as well as updated immunizations on or before October 15th. Students who have not submitted this or are not compliant with immunizations will be excluded from school after October 15th until proper documentation is provided. You may email nurse Kellie a copy of these items to kelliejo_alleman@ipsd.org or send a copy in your student's backpack.

Additionally, if you have a student who will have medication in the health office and haven't already done so, please have a doctor fill out the school medication administration or the self-carry medication and turn it into the health office. No medication can be accepted by the health office or carried by a student until these forms are properly filled out. Please enail forms to: kelliejo_alleman@ipsd.org.
