Dear parents,
Tomorrow, the school doors will open at 8:15 a.m. and school starts at 8:30 a.m. When you drop your child off in the morning, please do not walk your child into the school. For the first two days of school, either I or Ms. Emily (our new assistant) will be holding a sign where new students can meet us. If you are a returning student, we are now based in Room 18 (where Ms. Krista used to be) and no longer in our old classroom ( Room 22).
In the Fall, construction will start for the new Junior High building. Due to this, we will have a different pick up and drop off pattern this year. This pattern has been approved by the North Ogden Police Department and has to be followed. Basically, if you travel north bound after pick up, then follow the red route. If you travel southbound, then follow the blue route. Here is the PDF: http://mariamontessoriacademy.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/17-18-Drop-Off-Map-1.pdf. There is also a Youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Av109AjuwQ&feature=youtu.be.
Also, the North Shore Aquatic Center has asked that we not use their parking lot until after Labor Day, because they are still open and need the lot for those visiting the pool.
A few other helpful things to remember to help you while you are dropping off or picking up are:
1. Please pull forward if there is space in front of you.
2. Please try to avoid using your cell phone.
3. Please follow the directions of staff directing traffic.
4. Please stay in your car when you are using the pickup lanes.
5. Lastly, please be patient. The first couple of weeks of school are always slow with regards to pick up. People are still getting used to it and once North Shore closes, then people can park and pick up over there.
