CHILDREN LEARN FROM EXAMPLE
Be sure to drop your child off for school in the proper areas.

DO NOT

• use the driveway in front of the building.
• block crosswalks.
• allow your child to cross in the midle of the street.
• drop your child off on Mitchell Street (hill).
• access the teachers' parking lot.

• Students do better in school and in life. They are more likely to earn higher grades and test scores, graduate from high school, and go on to higher education.
• Parents become empowered. Parents develop confidence by helping their children learn at home. Many go on to further their own education and become active in the community.
• Teacher morale improves. Teachers who work with families expect more from students and feel a stronger connection to and support from the community.
• Schools get better. When parents are involved at home and at school, in ways that make them full partners, the performance of all children in the school tends to improve.
• Communities grow stronger. Families feel more invested in the school system, and the school
  system becomes more responsive to parent and community needs.
