Parents and other school-approved guests are welcome to visit with us at appropriate times. However, we must always be respectful of instructional time in the classrooms and we must adhere to our school safety protocols. Please be sure to check with your child’s teacher for appropriate times to visit and do not “drop in” without prior approval.
Lunch visits should be reserved for special occasions and should not be a regular practice. There is limited space in the cafeteria and students need socialization time with their peers. If visiting for lunch, please report to the office to sign in and get a visitor’s badge. We then ask that you walk directly to the cafeteria to meet your child’s class and that you do not visit any other areas of the school without approval from the office. All lunch visitors must sit at the designated visitor table with their children only (i.e. other students in the class must sit with their assigned class). Students must return to their classroom promptly at the end of their scheduled lunch time and should not stay in the cafeteria with visitors once their lunch time is over.
Please do not “drop in” before school hours to meet with teachers unless you have a previously scheduled appointment.
All students should walk to class each morning independently. This is a safety precaution and an effort to help foster independence in our students. There will be staff members and student safety patrol officers stationed around the school in order to assist with this process.
Any food-type treats that are brought to school to share with students MUST be commercially prepared and prepackaged with clearly labeled ingredients. The safety of our students is our top priority.
Remember, all visitors must report to the school office at entry, sign in and wear a visitor badge at all times.
