Important Safety Notice to Center Parents
To ensure the safety of your children, all transportation changes must be submitted through a written notice from a parent or guardian. We cannot accept transportation changes via text, email, or telephone.
Please submit written notices as early in the day as possible.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Sincerely,
Mr. LeVar Garner, Principal
Look for a skill you and your child can learn together. It’s a fun way to get to know your child on a new level.
Encourage your child to use sticky notes to write things to remember.
Teach your child to use positive self-talk. Phrases such as “I can do this” help keep kids motivated.
Praise your child’s responsible behavior.
Dear Center parents,
In the mornings in hopes of improving the flow of car rider we ask that when you pull up to the side walk that you allow your student to exit the vehicle onto the side walk. If you have child safety locks engaged in your vehicle or if your student needs help, please do not hesitate to let one of our staff members know that your child needs help. Staffing does not allow us to open every car door in the mornings. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. We look forward to seeing our students in the morning.
Help your child do something for a neighbor in need. Community service teaches kids that they can make a difference.
