- One minor tweak which will make a great deal of difference is this: parents driving from North to South on Breyman may use the yellow-curbed area adjacent to the cross-walk for drop-off. Beth Marchi is out there everyday with the crossing flag, and is able to help students safely exit their vehicles (on the right-hand side) onto the curb. They should then walk through or around the school to the back side. Pick-up in this same location is possible in the same manner.
- From the South side, driving North, it is okay to drop students at the crosswalk as well. They should cross in front of your car; the crossing guard will assist in ensuring oncoming traffic stops as well. This is not as convenient as the other direction, but it's nice to have another option if things are congested.
- Wednesday, an officer of the law has informed me he will be ticketing folks parked in the "triangle."
- I'll throw in one more quick note: while speeding drivers is not a huge issue here, all it takes is once. Please be thoughtful in driving, especially as the roads get wet for the first time. We have so many children riding bikes and we want to ensure their safety.
Our attention now turns to the Grand Opening on October 3rd. This promises to be a wonderful event, with multi-generational participants in families celebrating the opening of the new school. Stay tuned for more details from the school district.
- I am putting out an "RFP" for 7th and 8th graders who would like to be hosts at the event. Requirements would be (a) dressing nicely and acting as docents, (b) meeting with me on Wednesday next during school to discuss their role, and (c) be here from 2:45-5:15 on the 3rd. Please email me with your son or daughter's desire to participate.
