Willow Parent Bulletin #2

Sept.2, 2022

Thanks!

Thank you to all of you who have made school run smoothly the last 8 days... we made it to September! We know that with the bus situation many more of you are walking or driving. We appreciate you following the safety guidelines like pulling all the way down, staying in your lane, and following all the street signs. It makes a HUGE difference for everyone!

Students are allowed to ride bikes to school once they get to Churchill. We do not have any bike racks or locations to keep them. We also love your furry family members, but pets should not be on the school property when we are in session.

If you arrive after 8:05AM your student needs to be checked in, by you, through the office. At the end of the day they will wait until 3 PM at their "walker" door before bringing students to the office for pick up. If you can't find a close place to park at the end of the day, please loop the block and come back around. It clears out pretty quickly. While we understand that extenuating circumstances may exist sometimes, the expectation is that your Wildcat be dropped off and picked up on time.

We will not make any transportation changes after 2 PM. Late notification makes the end of the day harried for everyone. Please either send a note in the morning or call prior to 2 PM. We appreciate your cooperation.

The office is always available to answer any questions. Consulting the Willow School Handbook can also answer many of your questions.

Have a safe 3 day weekend! We will see you on Tuesday!

If you would like a certain staff member to know that you think he/she is pretty darn amazing, you can recognize them on the link below. I will add any recipients to the Staff Bulletin they receive. It only takes a minute or so to "shout out" their amazing work!
