Our morning drop-off crew are present to ensure the safety of your students. Please be reminded that our expectations for families are the same as the students in the building - Be Safe, Be Respectful, Be Responsible. If necessary, our School Resource Officers and Administration Team will be activated to support our staff if necessary.

If you drop off students in the morning keep the following in mind

• Adults must remain in vehicle while utilizing the Drop Off Lane
• DO NOT use the Drop Off Lane if your student requires assistance to exit the vehicle. Please park and walk your student to the sidewalk, utilizing the crosswalks.
• DO NOT pull through parking spots to enter the Drop-off or Passing lanes as this creates a safety hazard for our students.

Northwest Community Schools is pleased to offer a Mental Health and Wellness resource to all families, students, and staff in our district called ParentGuidance.org.

ParentGuidance.org is a completely FREE resource developed by licensed therapists that provides trusted and specialized courses, professional support, and a safe community to learn how to support our children and get answers to mental health questions.

Our hope is that ParentGuidance.org will give concerned parents a place to go for answers to support and help their children struggling with depression, anxiety, and family strife, as well as provide tools for forming stronger bonds between parents and their children.

ParentGuidance.org is free and confidential

MEDICINE PROCEDURES

If your child needs medication to be administered at a school a medication form must be completed, along with a signature by the prescribing physician. The medicine must be brought in the original container with the prescription label attached.

• Medication must be transported by a parent and checked in at the office.
• Over-the-counter medications (cough drops, Tylenol, Tums) must have doctor's order.

Parking Lot Safety Reminders

• Please stay off your cell phone! Your eyes on the road are the best tools for parking lot safety.
• Please continue to pull all the way up and use the crosswalk.
• If you need to escort your child inside please park in a designated parking spot and not along the drop-off curb.

MORNING TARDINESS

We encourage promptness since tardies affect everyone and disrupt classroom time. One of the most valuable life skills a student can learn from his/her parent/guardian is the responsibility of arriving at school every day on time. Morning is the time when important school news is announced, teachers define the plans for the day, and instructional goals are reviewed and set. The whole tone of a child’s school day is set in the first part of the day.

• School starts at 8:25 a.m.

• If your student is not participating in their classroom morning routine by 8:35 a.m. they will be considered tardy.

• Students not in their classroom seat by 8:35 a.m. shall be considered tardy.

• If the supervisory aides are not present when you drop off your student, they are tardy. Please make sure to come in the office and sign them in.

• Doctor appointments/professional appointments are excused with a doctors note.

Please help support your child in learning habits that will help them be successful at school and throughout life. If you need help or have concerns getting your child to school on time please contact the office. We are here to help.

If your child will be absent from school please complete the NWEE Absence Notification Form on our website or contact the office at 817-4705.
