| Hello Green Bear Families, We had a wonderful first week back at school. In addition to welcoming new staff to replace retirements, we also welcomed 74 kindergarten students and 32 new students in grades 1-6. A reminder for pick up on Pardee Island (loading den): Parents please be sure you have the Yellow Dismissal card with your last name prominently displayed in your car so teachers can see who you are picking up. If you do not have your sign, for the safety of the students, we will ask you to pull around to the end of the line so we can check your ID. We want to be certain we are putting students in the car with parents/guardians who are authorized to pick them up. If you need an extra dismissal card for another pick up person, please email Jeanie Hardman with that request and we will make sure your child is given the card. Have a great weekend, Rose Gaiffe Interim Elementary Principal rgaiffe@ohschools.org |
