We need your help! Our student (and adult) safety is top priority. We have seen an increased amount of people using the parking lot and walking students across which is causing both a safety issue and also a back-up in traffic. Please review the following information and let’s work together to make this process a safe one:

• Morning Drop-off

• Students can be dropped off beginning at 8:20am when BH staff are present to supervise. This has been going very well. Thanks. The first bell to come into the building is 8:25am.

• Please do not use the parking lot to drop off students UNLESS you are coming into the building (office), assisting a child with carrying supplies, or other special circumstances. Thank you for your help with this.

• All cars should enter our parking lot on the southeast side of our building nearest Idlewild park and follow the traffic pattern continuing to move forward.

• Students can be dropped off safely anywhere along the sidewalk in the front of the school curbside

• The crosswalk in front of our school needs to remain open

• Afternoon Pick-up

• This has been going well. Thank you for your efforts!

• Student pick-up numbers will be typed in beginning 3:20(5) and students will be released beginning at 3:25pm.

• All cars should enter our parking lot on the southeast side of our building nearest Idlewild park and follow the traffic pattern continuing to move forward along the curbside of our school.

• We will continue to move cars forward to pick up students so that we don’t back traffic up too long on Harbor Lights.

• If you do not normally pick your child up, but need to, please make sure to contact the office/teacher so that we can put it in our system to notify.

We are excited to welcome you all to our school next week Tuesday and Thursday for Student-Led Conferences.

• Student-Led conferences will take place on October 22 and 24 from 4:00 to 7:30.

• 15 minute conferences will be a time to celebrate growth and to talk about goals.

• Students will lead a portion of this conference and will utilize their Portfolios.

• Please limit the people in the conference to: the student giving the conference, the parents/guardians, and the classroom teacher. This helps to keep the focus on the student during the conference.

• To help with this, we will again be having free childcare in our Library area (Solution Studio).

• Additional chairs will be available outside the classrooms for older Sailors and siblings

• NEW this year, and to help assist us with staying on time, will be a chime sound bell that will be every 15 minutes to alert a change in conferences.

Sign-ups are open through Thur, Oct 17th.

Click HERE if you still need to sign up.

After Oct, 17th you will need to contact your student/s teacher to sign up.
