Week 2- PLEASE READ!

As we prepare for week 2, there are a few notes I’d like to share to help smooth things out!

Arrivals: We have tuned up and tweaked our process to get everyone quickly and safely checked in.

            If you have ONLY Early Childhood students, you can enter through the right door at Entrance F without waiting in the check-in line. Proceed to the right of the check-in table and go straight to the preschool hall.

            If you have Older Childhood students (or both EC and OC), please enter the line to the check-in table. We will have 3 lines going to 3 staff members, just give your last name first, then first names of OLDER CHILDREN only and they will check you off and wave you on to the name tag table. Parents of OC, if your child is comfortable doing so, they can check themselves in, you aren’t required to walk your children in.

            Once your OC kiddos have their name tags, they can proceed to the gym for Morning Time. Parents, you can help your child find their name tags if you wish, but it isn’t required. You are welcome to head out once you’ve dropped off your EC sweeties.

PLEASE SEND YOUR CHILD WITH A WATER BOTTLE AND A NUT-FREE SNACK OR $1-2 for concessions. Please don’t send bills larger than a $5 if possible, we don’t have a lot of change 😊

Dismissals: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!

We have done a lot of work on our end to make this quicker and more efficient for everyone, but I need parents to do their part as well. Please follow the map and enter the parking lot based on whether or not you have Early Childhood students (RED) or only Older Childhood (GREEN). If you are in the wrong line, we are going to have to send you back out, as we don’t have staff to move students from one side to the other and parents are not allowed to enter during dismissal and it is a safety hazard.

If you have EC children, be sure to have your children’s names and EC room numbers on your car sign. When your children are brought out, please work with us to get everyone seated and buckled asap so we can keep moving. If you need extra time, consider moving to a nearby parking space. If you have BOTH EC and OC, do NOT get in the EC line before 12:15 (or even 12:20). Your older kids won’t be ready for pickup and we will have to send you back around to the back. ☹ If you have both EC and OC, but your EC child is out for some reason, you will still need to pick up your OC in the EC line. If you have questions about this, let me know.

If you have only OC, you need a sign in your window with your family number. This number was emailed last week, and will also be on your child’s name tag when you bring them in. If you need help with this, email or text me, I can give it to you.

If you wish to “walk up” for pickup, (OC ONLY—NO WALK UP FOR EC) you will need to park and walk up to Entrance K (NOT F). K is the entrance directly to the right of the gym. You will be met at the door, just give your family # and someone will bring your child to you. We will not take Walk-ups at Entrance F. This is for safety, we do not want anyone walking across the carline.

If you need to pick up your children early, please arrive BEFORE 12:00 and enter at Entrance F. You will sign in, let us know, and we will get your children for you. If you text me that you are on your way, that will be even quicker. (225-324-7758) You will not be allowed to walk in after noon.
