We have an addition to our plan that we hope will help....a bright orange flag that we will raise on the flag pole when we have called for rainy day dismissal at 2:45( We borrowed this idea from Austin Parkway Elementary; "they" said it works well!) Even though not everyone can see the flag pole, we hope that word will spread. Hopefully, this will be better than the guessing you parents are having to do now with our unpredictable weather! Parents are urged to take the initiative and monitor the weather forecast and make a plan before your student leaves for school. If appropriate, make sure you child is equipped with the necessary rain gear. Although we will do our best to make sound decisions concerning dismissal, we cannot control the weather. Thank you for being understanding with this. In addition, we request that you avoid calling the school between 2:30 and 3:00 to change your child’s route home. No changes in dismissal will be made after 2:30 p.m. Thank you for understanding that we have over 950 students, and we need your help by planning in advance. Thank you also, for not coming in to the building prior to dismissal to sign your child out early in order to avoid car lines. With over 950 students, we really need and appreciate the cooperation of everyone. Reminder: All walkers and bikers must have a “Rainy Day Plan” on file with the homeroom teacher.
