Title I Reading
The school district, in cooperation with the federal government, provides a Reading Program for students who are identified as being in need of additional help in reading skills development. Certified Reading Specialists meet with small groups of students at least three periods per week. Classroom teachers typically refer students to the Title I program. All students are tested using the DRA to assess reading progress. Students who test out of the program are dismissed
from the Title I Reading program.
Walkers/Car Rider Information
Parents or Guardians dropping off and/or picking up their children in a car
should wait in their cars along the parking lot overhang or stand on the sidewalk. No parents are permitted to drop off or pick up along Maple Street or Sixth Street.
Morning Drop-off (8:20-8:38 am) All walkers are to be dropped off at the Parking Lot Ramp area in the morning. Because of traffic congestion and safety issues, no one may be dropped off anywhere except the Parking Lot Ramp. Drivers should remain in the car and pull up, single file, along the overhang. Children should exit the car and walk directly into the school. If you need to walk your child into the office, please park in a designated parking space, and enter through the “Daytime Entrance.” For the safety of all students, no parents will be admitted through ANY other doors
Afternoon Pickup (3:20 pm) -
Walkers who travel by foot will be dismissed first to the Parking Lot Ramp area. If an adult is escorting a student home, the adult should be at the Parking Lot Ramp no later than 3:20 pm.
-
Car riders will be dismissed last at the Parking Lot Ramp. Car drivers must pull up, single file, in a line around the parking lot and flowing out onto Maple Street, if needed. As each car approaches the overhang, students will be dismissed from the vestibule to their Driver. Students will enter the car, buckle up, and then Drivers may pull away, remaining in the single file line. The next set of cars will approach the overhang, and their students will be called out from the vestibule, following the same procedure. No drivers may get out of the cars and no cars may pass other cars.
-
Office Pickup: Because of the security procedures all parents must enter the building through the “Daytime Entrance.” If you need to pick your child up from inside school, prior to dismissal, please use the “Daytime Entrance.”
