Safety First
At New Discoveries we continually strive to create a learning environment that is safe for every child, family member, staff member and guest. We need your help in several areas to help make New Discoveries as safe a place as possible. As we partner in this regard, please consider the following:
Student drop-off and pick-up:
1. If you drop your child off at school, or pick him/her up after school, please pull up as close to the curb as possible in the area to the west of the main entrance canopy. We need to leave plenty of room for the buses and auto traffic to pass in the main driveway. The student drop-off area is clearly marked for student drop-off. The area along the curb to the eastof the canopy is for buses only. That area is clearly marked for bus parking only. By order of the fire marshall, there is NO parking on the driveway adjacent to the sidewalk. This area is for drop-off and pick-up only. Do NOT exit your car in the drop-off zone.
Please arrange your passengers so they exit on the sidewalk side of the vehicle, rather than into the traffic lane. This is critical.
If you choose to walk into the building with your child, or to pick him/her up, please park in 1 of the designated, marked parking spots. Please walk your child into the building using the marked crosswalk in front of the canopy at the main entrance.
Please drive slowly and watch for auto, bus and pedestrian traffic.
2. When picking your child up from NDMA, please wait in the lobby area. If you arrive before the end of the school day and intend on visiting your child’s classroom, please stop at the front desk to sign in, and to get a visitor’s badge. At the conclusion of your visit, please return to the front desk to sign out. Your help is greatly appreciated in this regard.
