Principal's Note - Jan 3, 2010

If you are a middle school family, the return from break means the beginning of our Winter Enrichment Program. Even if you are an elementary family, you may want to remind yourself on WEP mornings to give yourself a little extra time. Also: the lower field is CLOSED on those Fridays and used for cars/drop-off, with supervision in the gym from 8:40 till 9:10, but not before 8:40, so please do not drop off before then, because we do not have any supervision available for your child

Middle School: Please be sure your permission and health forms have been turned in. Also, drop off and pick up can be very chaotic at first. Drivers: drop off ONLY on 18th. (On 19th we have to unload school busses, then load up ski busses.) We ask you to drive in the SOUTH DIRECTION ONLY. If you happen to DRIVE north to drop off, you will be asked to go around the block and get in line going south. Also, in the evening pick up parking is on 18th and north of the bus zone only.

Finally, this is a difficult time for our neighbors. I ask you to not only be aware of your own parking, but also help to remind others who may be infringing on a neighbor’s yard or space.

Also: you’ll see more details elsewhere in the bulletin but this is a reminder that there is a question/answer meeting with the head of district transportation tomorrow night at 7pm at Salmon Bay regarding a possible change to an earlier start time next year.

Thanks! And welcome back!
