Visitors in the Building
Every time a visitor is allowed in the school building, there is a potential security risk.
Anyone entering the building must have an appointment, meaning the office staff
must know you are coming, when, and why. This affects picking up children early
from school, dropping off items to students or the office, and meeting with faculty
and staff members.
● If you are dropping off an item to a student or the office, there will be a plastic
bin inside the vestibule at the main entrance. Please press the button to be let
in and let the office staff member who answers know who you are and what you
are leaving. Please make sure the item is clearly labelled. Place the item in the
bin. It will be retrieved and delivered to whom it needs to go.
● If you are picking up a child early from school, please call the office ahead of
time or send in a note clearly labelled for the office. Your name will then be
placed on the list for clearance into the building at that time.
● If you are dropping off a late child, you can bring them into the vestibule and an
office staff member assist your child to where he/she needs to go.
● If you would like to meet with Sister Marie or a teacher/staff member, you must
have an appointment. Please call ahead to schedule a convenient time. You will
not be allowed in the building to find available teachers before school, during
school, or after school.
● If you have an appointment, are the lunch aide for the day, or volunteering in
another capacity, you will be let into the vestibule and then let in through the
second set of doors. These doors will also be locked (estimated to be completed
this fall). Once in the school, please proceed to the office, sign in, and receive a
visitor badge. If you are meeting a teacher for an appointment, he/she will
meet you in the office and escort you to where you will be meeting. No one can
wander around the building. Please remember to sign out and turn in the badge
before you leave the building.
● All entering and exiting the building must be done through the main entrance
near the parking lot. Please never knock at another door to be let in. Staff and
students have been taught to never let anyone in those doors. Please do not exit
via any other door to prevent door from being left open accidentally.
● If your child is staying with a teacher for tutoring after school, the teacher will
bring your child to the vestibule to meet you.
● For After Care from 3:00-6:00pm each day, parents are not to go past the
vestibule at the main entrance. Ring the bell and let the office staff know who
you are and who you are there to pick up. The office staff will call the
appropriate after care room, and ask for your child/children to be brought to
the vestibule. There will be a sign out sheet available for you to sign your child
out at that time.
