A Message from Our Principal

Dear Parkway Families,

Now that the cold weather is upon us, I would like to review our drop-off procedures. Our parking lot is very busy from 8:45 until 9:00 a.m. Therefore, it is critical for the safety of our students that parents follow our school rules.

We encourage all parents, pre-school included, to use our drop-off zone. There are three staff members at the drop-off receiving students. If one takes advantage of this lane, all of the child’s belongings must be ready to depart with them (no backpacks in the trunk), and the driver must remain in the vehicle.

If a parent chooses to park and walk the child to the side door, they must use the last two lanes of the parking lot which will be closed to significant traffic flow.

The short-term inconvenience of following the parking lot procedures ensures the safety of all students. Too often, a few people break this rule, especially during inclement weather, and it causes an unsafe environment for all of the other students. Please drive with extreme caution through the lot as many of our young learners walk from parked cars to the school entrance.

Thank you,

Suzanne Barbi
