Attention MASSA Families – Walker Safety Reminder
As we kick off the school year, we kindly ask all families to review the MASSA Walker Safety Reminders with your scholars.
Walking home is a privilege that comes with responsibility.
To ensure everyone’s safety and help our dismissal process run smoothly,
it’s important that all scholars understand and follow the guidelines.
โ
Please go over each reminder with your child, especially:
The need for a valid walker pass
Promptly exiting the building at “walker all call”
Older siblings taking responsibility for their younger ones
Always using crosswalks to cross the street safely
Being picked up by 3:45 PM, as there is no supervision after this time
Your support is key to keeping our community safe.
Let’s work together to help our scholars take this responsibility
seriously and make sure they’re following expectations every day ๐๐ฆ
๐ซSCHOOL POLICIES๐
We wanted to kindly remind our families of our campus hours
as well as a few policies we have in place.
Please take a moment to look over this. We're so excited to welcome you all back.
