Info for 4th Grade parents that couldn't attend Lakeview meeting
1. They encourage all kids to ride the bus. Students are allowed in the building at 8am. Tardy bell rings at 8:15am.
Dismissal takes 10-15 min due to almost 900 kiddos. Bus dismissal there are 2 rounds. Round 1, which is usually fishcreek area, leaves the school at 2:50. Round 2 is at 2:55. Kids who are car riders do not get dismissed until almost 3p.
CAR RIDERS: Please drop off & pick up at the appropriate areas. Do not drop off anywhere else due to heavy traffic congestion (Lakeview & Highland)...
2. Teaching is a "team" approach, 1 teacher is math/science, the other english etc... Team of 2 teachers
3. They compile info from all the 4th grade teachers about our kids to try to place them with the right teachers/classes.
