CIS Newsletter April 9, 2021

It was a very successful week at CIS. We were able to bring students back safely and continue to serve our students at home. Our students were excited and happy to be back at school or to see their classmates and have more interaction with them. Thank you to our students, parents, teachers, and staff for helping make this a success.

A couple items:

*Please label all of your child’s things. That way we can get them back to them when we find them. (we find a lot of things)

*Pick up and drop off:

Pick Up and Drop Off procedures

Morning Drop-off 7:30 a.m. – 8:00 a.m.
1. During morning drop-off parents may only park outside of parking lot.
2. Parents may use the student drop-off entering through
Wilshire Ave heading East only.
3. Parents CAN NOT enter the drop-off area if they are heading
West on Wilshire Ave. No Left Turns into the parking lot.
4. Parents using the drop-off must exit onto S. Pan American
(access road)
5. Please have your students ready to exit the car when you
enter the drop-off lane.
6. It is important that the drop-off lane moves continuously with
very brief stops. If you stop short of pulling up in the drop off
lane it backs up everyone else.
7. Teachers will be at the drop-off area to ensure students
arriving between 7:30-7:45 a.m. wait in the designated area.
At 7:45 students are let into the building by grade.
8. Students arriving after there class has left their designated
area can go directly to the back door for entry into the school.
Students should go directly to class.

Afternoon Pick-up 2:30 – 2:45 and Wednesdays 12:30 – 12:45.
1. Same rules as above except: There are two pick up lanes. One
is to the right against the curb and to the left along the solid
white line. The middle lane is used for exit after students are
picked up and the left or right lane is not clear in front of you.
It is important that the pick-up lane moves continuously.

Please do not exit your car. Teachers and staff will assist in getting your students to your vehicle.
Please stay off your cell phone while picking up students. Go slow in our lot. ... See MoreSee Less
