Before each session begins, teachers will receive a list of their students who are participating in enrichment programs. For afternoon classes, teachers will walk Kindergarten students to the programs arrival location (gym) for enrichment programs. 1st-5th graders will walk to the gym on their own. We ask teachers to remind all of their students participating.
For afternoon classes, programs instructors will walk Campagna to their location, will drop off bus riders to the bus area where our On-Site Coordinator will be and will walk remaining students outside of the central door to be signed out by an authorized pick up person. For more information, please visit the "Policies & Procedures" tab.
