ST. AGNES’ OWN . . . DROP-OFF LOOP – Kiss & Ride
The children’s safety is a concern to all of us. The expectation is that drivers will respond to these signs and they will be cautious when approaching the school area. As parents, it is reasonable to expect a safe “drop-off” zone for the children. Hence, the question: “Where can I stop in order to disembark my child(ren)?” First, the DROP OFF LOOP is ideal to drop off children in a safe and expedient manner. Older students should be dropped off at the first stop before arriving at the dumpster curve. The JK/SK students need to be dropped off closer to Ms. Gesualdo’s gate which is the closest to the bike rack. We will have staff/parent volunteers to walk your child to the gate. Only one gate will be open and children can get to either side from inside
the gated area. When dropping off children in this Kiss & Ride area, please be considerate of other vehicles by moving along quickly. If you plan to watch your JK/SK child, we ask you not to block the gate. The only viewing area will be the grass area.
Some parents may wish to drop off on LaRocca. Please note that for the crossing guard to be effective, cars need to leave a safe distance for the children to “see in each direction” Please park approximately 10 meters away from the cross walk. Please remember to NOT block any driveways and please do not park too close to the school driveways. Busses need additional space to turn safely without clipping the front or back end of a stopped/parked car. U-turns are prohibited and would create a danger in any school area. As a gentle reminder, please ensure the safety of children by having them wear seatbelts correctly, at all times.
If you are willing to volunteer 20 minutes a day on a rotating base, please send in your name and phone number along with your child’s name and teacher to the office. Please include the days that work best for you. Thanks for your time and assisting us to make St. Agnes of Assisi an even safer school.
