Central parents a few reminders:
1) Please make sure your son/daughter has warm clothes for outside. They still need coat/snow pants/hat/gloves and winter boots. If you need anything Contact Mr. Schaffer.
2) Please make sure they bring gym shoes, so they do not have to wear snow boots during school hours. If you need any, contact Mr. Schaffer.
3) When dropping off or picking up, please do not park in the middle of street. This is a safety issue. Please park your vehicle to drop off or pick up.
4) Please do not make U-Turns in front of Central during drop-offs and pick up times. This is a safety issue.
5) When dropping off/picking up students, remember to follow the parking sign guidelines that are on the sidewalk in front of Central. If you child is not out front to be picked up, drive around the block, especially when we have busses still out front. See attachment.
6) Keep using the crosswalk on Main street where aides are monitoring on playground side during dismissal. This has worked well having an aide at that crosswalk.
It won't be too long before students are riding bikes to and from school. We want everyone to be safe to and from Central.
Thanks for everything you do to help keep our students safe. Even if you are not a parent or have a current student here, it takes a "Community to help our students succeed and be safe at Central!!!"
Any questions please stop in to visit with Mr. Schaffer.
