Safety Team Update
We wanted to send a reminder that the only non-faculty adults who should be in the building during school hours are those who are volunteering.
If you are volunteering, please make sure to enter from the front of the school so that you can sign in at the office. Ultimately, your child’s safety is our biggest priority, and this can help us make sure everyone they interact with when they’re here is an approved adult.
