Campus Safety
Using Crosswalks
Please only use the marked cross walks when walking from the parking lots to the school sidewalks. Crossing between the buses is not safe.
Morning Supervision
Teachers share supervision responsibilities beginning at 7:30 am. Please refrain from dropping off your child to school prior to 7:30 am. for the safety of your child.
Dismissal
Parents waiting by the Music Room are asked to stay on the grassy area. This will clear the walkway and allow students going to parent pick-up to arrive safely. Parents waiting to pick up students at the Bridge are asked to remain at the Bridge waiting area where tables were placed for parents' use.
Visitors on Campus
Any adult who comes on campus after 8:10am MUST go to the office first to sign in as a visitor or volunteer. All visitors and volunteers must wear their yellow name tags for the safety and security of all students. This will allow the teachers and students to know your purpose for being on campus. Please park in designated parking areas and lock your vehicle at all times when on campus.
Classroom Volunteers
We love our volunteers. If you would like to volunteer in your child's class, you must have a Volunteer Application on file or complete a new one. Volunteer applications can take 3 weeks or more to be processed with the district. The good news is a volunteer application is good for 5 years! While you are waiting for your application to be processed, you can always offer to do some work at home for your child's teacher. If you have any other questions about volunteering please contact the front office at (386) 575-4115.
**In case of an emergency during a special event on campus, everyone will meet at the South parking lot by the Bridge.**
Be aware of your surroundings. If you notice any suspicious individuals around bus stops or school property, please notify administration or law enforcement.
No Smoking
There is no smoking on school property. Any smoking should take place outside of the school gates.
