Dear Keller Families,
We are excited to share that construction of our new addition will begin next week!
On Monday, September 15, the playground will be closed in order to prepare for construction. As part of the overall plan, a new playground will be built for our students.
Additionally, to keep things running smoothly during this project, we need to adjust our dismissal procedures for walkers. Please note that bus and car rider dismissal procedures will remain the same.
Starting Friday, September 12, walker dismissal will follow these updated procedures:
- Parents who pick up walkers (west side of the school along Everdon): Please meet your child on the Everdon Drive side of the school, near the trees. Parents should wait behind the orange cones in the grassy area. Students will exit through the front of the building and be escorted to this area.
- Students who live behind the school (north side of the school): Students will exit through the front doors and walk along the sidewalk on Everdon Drive. For safety, students will not be permitted to walk along the fence line near the retention pond.
- Students who live on the front (south) of the school, crossing guard side, and walk home by themselves: These students will continue to follow their usual route along the sidewalk to the crossing guard.
- Students who live in front (south) or side (east) of the school, and parents meet to walk: Parents who walk home with their children should meet them at the drop-off zone (same location used in the morning).
A picture is included to help clarify these changes.
Thank you for your flexibility as we make adjustments to ensure the safety of our students during construction. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me directly.
Sincerely,
Principal Julie M. Simpson
