The students did a terrific job this week with transitioning back to school. Arrival and dismissal has gone smoothly. The buses are still running a little behind schedule in the afternoon but within a few weeks that should resolve itself. Just a few reminders that next week students will not be waiting outside with their teachers when they are dropped off by car rider or buses. They will cross over the crosswalk for car riders and go directly into the cafeteria from 8:30-8:40. Teachers are on duty to guide them and then at 8:40 they go to class. If they arrive after 8:40 they will be directed to go to their classroom. The doors close at 8:55. If you arrive after that time you will need to walk around to the front and sign your child in. In the afternoon for car riders, you must exit out the exit by the double gates. You cannot exit out the entrance until after 3:20. This is for buses only. There is a sign that states this so please help to keep all the kids safe by following the traffic signs and rules. In addition, you cannot go by a bus that has it's lights on or flashing. This means that students are either loading the bus or exiting. We appreciate your support in this.
We had our first fire drill today. The students did an incredible job. They were quiet and safely exited the building appropriately.
The staff have started to implement some of our PBIS lessons with students this and it will continue over the next month. You will soon be hearing about being Pawsome and start to see some Paws going home once we get underway. Next week Mrs. Gibbs will be showing the video on how to use our buddy bench at recess time as well.
