Safety Protocols and procedures
Our number one priority is to keep your children safe at school. We have protocols and procedures in place to help make our campus safe. Please review these as a family and make sure anyone who comes to pick up your child is also aware of our procedures.
Adults on Campus -
- All adults on campus will wear a badge/sticker to indicate that they are either an employee or a visitor. If you are on campus, you must first check in at the office and get a visitor's badge.
- We are excited to welcome families back on campus this year! Parents are encouraged to come volunteer in the classrooms. We ask that it be pre-arranged with the teacher ahead of time for a designated time and that you check in at the office and wear a badge.
- All staff will wear staff shirts on the first day of school to help our youngest and new students easily recognize an employee and get assistance if needed.
- If you are new to Hartford or our our front office staff does not know you, when you come to pick up your child, or ask for information, we will ask for identification; please be prepared to show it.
- Parents bringing items from home (forgotten water bottles, books etc.) will leave it at the front desk, and our front office team will get it to your child as soon as possible.
- We use the first quarter to review our procedures with our students. Therefore, we will hold off until 2nd quarter allowing parents to have lunch on campus with their children. When the weather cools, we will get it set up and enjoy the new outdoor tables!
- No parents are permitted on the playground before, after school or at recess times.
Gates -
- All of our gates remain locked during the school day. The only way on to our campus during the day is through the front office.
High Heat -
- Our district has a standard formula for determining when it is too hot for children to play outside. We believe outside play is important, so we watch the weather carefully, encourage shade and water breaks, and when it reaches the "high heat zone" we do indoor activities only.
- Please make sure to send your child with a refillable water bottle with their name on it. We do have the refillable drinking fountains around campus.
Student safety is our #1 priority. At Hartford you will see/notice:
- All staff members will be in orange/green vests when on duty
- All classroom doors will be locked during the school day
- Exterior gates will be locked during school hours
- All visitors must sign in the front office
- Our SSO, Doc will stop by our campus daily and is always a phone call away.
- Our office now has a single entry port.
Thank you for your support in keeping our students and staff safe at school.
