Weather Reminders

This time of year means the regular transition between warm and cold weather. Please help your student come to school prepared for the weather over the next several weeks.

• Please ensure your child is prepared with outdoor clothing and footwear for all weather conditions.
• All students enjoy 20 minutes of fresh air at lunch (weather permitting) and some physical education classes outside, and this time is much more enjoyable if they are dressed for the weather.
• Families are encouraged to review this checklist to be prepared for using transportation every school day and throughout the school year. Transportation Family Checklist
• Please ensure your child is prepared with outdoor clothing and footwear for all weather conditions.
• Students should not arrive at school before 8:55 a.m. (Soft entry starts at 9:03 a.m.)
• Students must be picked up from school by 4:00 p.m.

Parking Reminders

• Please do not park or drop off students in the bus zone in front of the school between 7 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.
• We now have 5 school buses at Bob Edwards School, and they need the space to operate safely.
• Please do not drop off or pick up your child from the staff parking lot.

Wishing you all a restorative weekend!
