2. For the safety of our children, please be certain that the children use the designated crosswalk areas and do not cross the street directly from your parked car. Please do not park in the “Drop Off Zone”.

DISMISSAL Procedures:
- Students will be dismissed by their teachers:
Kindergarten – Students will exit through the Cypress Street door.
Grades 1-4 – Students will exit out the doors in the back of the school.
- Parents or guardians picking up at dismissal, please stand back from the stairs and meet your child at the designated area posted for your child’s class. If a parent is not present during this time, the child is brought to the main office and phone calls are made. Please make sure all phone numbers and contact information is current.
- Send a written signed note informing us about any changes in your regular dismissal routines. An email is acceptable for last minute changes, addressed to the classroom teacher and jill.vaccaro@millburn.org in the main office. Additionally, please follow up with a phone call to the main office to confirm receipt of your email for any changes after 1p.m. For students who attend after school programs (other than SAM or ASE) please send a letter informing us of this arrangement.
- Mark your home calendar for any early dismissal days to insure your child’s appropriate supervision.
