Whew, another summer just flew by! Where does the time go??? Although, as much as I love the summer, I still find the start of a new year to be extremely exhilarating. The building has been a busy place during the past two months. We have had lots of camps and classes going on during much of the summer. Even though the summer programs are finished, the building continues to reverberate with activity. Teachers are in and out getting rooms ready and planning their instructional programs, the handyman crew is working to make repairs and preparing for painting, and the construction crew is putting the finishing touches on our expanded parking lot. I'm sure many of you have been tracking the progress of the changes to our parking lot. As a matter of fact, they are laying blacktop as I'm writing this! Your Board of Directors has worked hard to address the following on-going concerns that will be alleviated by the additional space: - Cars on Baileywick Road - One of the main goals of the addition is to get parents off Baileywick Road during afternoon pick up. This will improve visibility for people turning right out of our parking lot. The new driveway design should help this situation significantly.
- Ease of pick up/drop off for appointments - Up to now, it has been difficult for you to pick up your children for appointments near the end of the school day. This sometimes made it necessary to pick them up at 2:00 or earlier, resulting in unnecessary lost instructional time. The three new five minute parking spaces in should assist in solving this problem.
- Additional Parking - As you know, there are times we don't have enough parking on campus. The 21 additional parking spaces will be a huge asset.
On behalf of all of us I want to thank Board Member, Mark Andrews for seeing this project through to fruition. He has worked long and hard on making it happen for us. Thank you Mark! Please be sure to read the updated carpool procedures in the 2010-2011 Student Handbook which will be available on our website within the next two weeks.
