✨Math in Action!✨
Students in Ms. Rodriguez’s 2nd-grade class worked together in groups to sort pattern blocks by shape. After sorting, they shared what they noticed about their data—making connections, comparing totals, and practicing mathematical thinking. 💡📊
Great job, Cheetahs!

Subject: Important: Morning Drop-Off Safety and Procedure Update

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We sincerely appreciate your cooperation in ensuring a smooth and safe start to each school day. To keep our students safe and maintain efficient traffic flow, please note the following updated morning drop-off procedure:


No Parking and Walking students to drop-off in Back Car rider line

For safety and traffic efficiency:

  • Please do not park and walk your student to the drop-off line. This slows down the car rider line for all parents and creates safety issues for students and parents. 

  • Students who walk to school should enter from the sidewalk from Hale Bowen, not the parking lot.  

Helpful Reminder Guidelines

  • Arrive On Time: Our Kindergarten through Fifth Grade car line (Back car rider line) is open from 7:30-8:25. At 8:25, students will need to be taken to the front of the school to enter.

  • Have Everything Ready: Please make sure your child’s backpack, lunch, and belongings are easily accessible—this helps speed up the process and keeps traffic moving.

  • Stay Alert: Avoid distractions like phone use while waiting in line.


We understand morning routines can be hectic, and we appreciate your flexibility and understanding. Your attention to these procedures ensures our students arrive safely and our mornings run smoothly.

Thank you for your continued support!

Warmly,

Erin Roberts
Assistant Principal/Park Creek Elementary

TRANSLATED:

Asunto: Importante: Actualización de seguridad y procedimiento para la llegada por la mañana

Estimados padres y tutores:

Agradecemos sinceramente su cooperación para garantizar un comienzo de día escolar seguro y sin contratiempos. Para mantener la seguridad de nuestros estudiantes y un flujo de tráfico eficiente, tenga en cuenta el siguiente procedimiento actualizado para la llegada por la mañana:


No estacionar y caminar con los estudiantes a la línea de llegada

Por seguridad y para mayor eficiencia en el tráfico:

  • Por favor, no estacione y camine con su hijo(a) hasta la línea de llegada. Esto retrasa la línea de autos para todos los padres y crea problemas de seguridad para estudiantes y padres.

  • Los estudiantes que caminan a la escuela deben entrar por la acera desde Hale Bowen, no por el estacionamiento.


Recordatorios útiles

  • Llegue a tiempo: Nuestra línea de autos para Kinder a Quinto grado (línea de autos trasera) está abierta de 7:30 a 8:25 a.m. A las 8:25, los estudiantes deberán ser llevados al frente de la escuela para entrar.

  • Tenga todo listo: Asegúrese de que la mochila, el almuerzo y las pertenencias de su hijo(a) estén fácilmente accesibles; esto ayuda a agilizar el proceso y mantener el tráfico en movimiento.

  • Manténgase atento(a): Evite distracciones como el uso del teléfono mientras espera en la fila.


Entendemos que las rutinas matutinas pueden ser agitadas y apreciamos su flexibilidad y comprensión. Su atención a estos procedimientos garantiza que nuestros estudiantes lleguen de manera segura y que nuestras mañanas transcurran sin problemas.

¡Gracias por su continuo apoyo!

Atentamente,
Erin Roberts
Subdirectora / Park Creek Elementary
