Crescent Public School
Pre K – 12thth grade
Safe Parking, Drop-Off, and Pick-Up Guidelines
We at Crescent Schools strive to keep everyone safe: teachers, parents and especially students. The safety and security of our school community is our priority. Our arrival and dismissal procedures for the 2020-2021 school year will help us to:
- Ensure that only approved individuals will pick-up your child.
- Reduce interactions between children and unauthorized adults by restricting entrance to the school hallways and classrooms to only students, employees, and designated visitors and volunteers.
- Keep individuals from accessing our buildings and children without an approved purpose.
In our efforts to make sure we meet this goal to maximize safety, please follow our new parking, drop off, and pick-up system.
