Welcome to the 5th week of of the 22-23 school year! It’s hard to believe we have already been in session for nearly a month. As we begin the week, here are a few friendly reminders:

• School starts for all students at 8:45 AM. Regular  attendance is one of the main indicators of success at school. Please help make sure your child arrives on time and prepared for school each day.
• Let’s keep student/family safety in mind during drop-off and pick-up. Please review our general drop-off/pick-up procedures which will help ensure we keep everyone safe and traffic flowing as smoothly as possible:
  • Please pull to the curb for drop-off and pick-up to avoid having students walking near moving vehicles.
  • Continue to move as far forward as possible as you work your way through the line and pick up your child. This helps the line continue to move forward.
  • Please do not park in the pick-up/drop-off zone or leave your car unattended in these areas to pick up your child.
  • The bus zone is designated for buses only and please do not park in this area or double park in the bus zone.
  • We encourage families to walk or carpool to school whenever possible. This helps reduce the number of cars driving to campus daily.
  • We encourage the use of the Terra Nova Park parking lot for families dropping off and picking up students hand to hand at the TK/Kinder gate.
  • Please remember to always use the sidewalk and crosswalks. We have had a couple of close calls recently and want to ensure everyone arrives safely.

  Thank you for your cooperation and support during our drop-off and dismissal time.  We also appreciate you modeling appropriate and courteous behavior for our Voyagers.

We want to thank you for your patience and understanding during arrival and dismissal at Clear View. As you know, we have many vehicles that access our parking lot and drop-off/pick-up areas each morning and afternoon. Last week we continued to have a few cars parked in the drop-off/pick-up loop and along the red curb in the kinder area. Please help us ensure these areas remain clear so school traffic to flow smoothly.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation during our drop-off and dismissal time.

COVID Safety

We have seen an increase of COVID cases at Clear View over the past week. Please note the following protocols we are following to minimize the spread of COVID on our campus:

• Screen your child for COVID-like symptoms each day, and do not send them to school if they have symptoms related to COVID-19

Green Meal Application Forms

Although school meals are available for students for no cost again this year, we are requesting all of our families to submit the green meal application form (sent home last week) which determines the State and Federal funding that schools receive. This funding provides students with support and resources for their academic success.

Benefits for your child include:

· Instructional materials

· Classroom technology

· Additional staffing to provide supports for students

· Extended learning opportunities for students

We appreciate your help completing and returning the survey as soon as possible. If you need another form, please stop by the front office and request a copy. Thank you for your help with this!

Arrival and Dismissal Traffic

We want to thank you for your patience and understanding during arrival and dismissal at Clear View. As you know, we have many vehicles that access our parking lot and drop-off/pick-up areas each morning and afternoon.

Kinder Lot:

We understand the need for many families to park during arrival and dismissal in order to drop-off and/or pick-up their child. As you know, parking in the kinder lot is limited. It is essential that everyone follows parking lot regulations and refrains from parking along red curbs and unmarked parking spots. This will allow traffic to flow quickly and student and families to safely enter and leave campus in this area.

We encourage the use of the Terra Nova Park parking lot or the surrounding neighborhood for families dropping off and picking up students hand to hand at the TK/Kinder area.

General Drop-Off/Pick-Up Procedures:

• Please pull to the curb for drop-off and pick-up to avoid having students walking near moving vehicles.
• Continue to move as far forward as possible as you work your way through the line and pick up your child. This helps the line continue to move forward.
• Please do not park in the pick-up/drop-off zone or leave your car unattended in these areas to pick up your child.
• The bus zone is designated for buses only and please do not park in this area or double park in the bus zone.
• We encourage families to walk or carpool to school whenever possible. This helps reduce the number of cars driving to campus daily.
• We encourage the use of the Terra Nova Park parking lot for families dropping off and picking up students hand to hand at the TK/Kinder gate.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation during our drop-off and dismissal time.  We also appreciate you modeling appropriate and courteous behavior for our Voyagers at all times.
