🚍🎉 Huge shoutout to our incredible Glenwood Transportation Department for passing this year's state inspection with flying colors—3 years in a row with ZERO write-ups! 🙌 The state inspectors go through every vehicle from top to bottom, checking everything from light bulbs to safety to any mechanical issues and so forth. This year, they inspected 24 buses and 22 suburban's/vans, and every single one passed with no issues!
Thank you to our hardworking team for always keeping our students safe and our vehicles in top-notch condition! 🚌💪 #TransportationExcellence #GlenwoodStrong #SafetyFirst
Good morning,
We hope everyone had an opportunity to meet with your child's preschool teacher. Our team is so excited about the first day of preschool tomorrow. All students scheduled to attend on Thursday will have their first day of school tomorrow.
Reminders about drop-off and pick-up
Drop-off: Students will be dropped off outside the preschool doors. Preschool staff will be outside the preschool doors to greet them. Additionally staff will be inside to ensure everyone makes it to their classrooms. To follow district policy on safety, parents will not be permitted in the building. Feel free to take pictures outside to capture the first day.
Pick-up: Preschool staff will bring the students to the preschool playground. Please make sure that your child's teacher knows that you are taking your child so we are accountable for all students.
Vine street drop off and pick up are not an option for preschoolers as we do not have available staff to escort them to and from the rooms.
Please learn your child's backpack tag number to provide to your child’s teacher to be dismissed. This will ensure each student is safely dismissed to the appropriate person.
I have attached the preschool QR code. Check out the website for important information.
We are so excited for the year to get started and see each child bloom and grow.
Mrs. McMullen and Mrs. Salazar
