Preschool Screening Information
Car Rider Drop Off/Pick Up Reminders
- Car drop offs and pick ups should occur in the lower lot only in the morning and afternoon.
- Please pull all the way forward so we can unload or load as many students at one time as possible, it really does make it go faster.
- Please remain in your vehicle, although we understand that some younger students still need help with seatbelts, if possible, please work with your child to be able to buckle their own seat belt.
- Please remember that student safety is our priority. Please do not park in the lot and ask your child to come to you or pass other vehicles in line.
- Please be patient, we're all working hard to make these times run smoothly. Thank you!

Girls on the Run 2024 Information
Every Girls on the Run season, volunteer coaches foster empathy and acceptance by empowering participants to build strong connections with one another, regardless of their backgrounds, abilities, or beliefs. Throughout the program, girls learn to appreciate the beauty of diversity and grow into compassionate, understanding, and open-minded individuals. Become a GOTR coach at Lothrop School and play a vital role in developing these positive relationships.
Our 10-week season begins the week of March 18 and culminates on June 8th with a celebratory 5K event!. Our team will meet twice weekly for 90 minutes each session to connect, move, learn and have FUN! No running or coaching experience is required. Coaches are provided with comprehensive training, a curriculum that maps out each session, supplies and support from GOTRVT for an enriching season. Programs are for girls in 3rd-8th grade.
Visit gotrvt.org/coach to learn more or sign up to volunteer. Questions? Contact GOTRVT at anne@girlsontherunvermont.org or 802-871-5664.
