Good Afternoon Families,
On behalf of the staff at Bayview Hill E.S. I would like to
welcome you to a new school year. This time of the year always brings a sense
of renewal as we get ready to learn and grow in such a wonderful community.
With nearly 750 students entering the school on the first day it is important
for us to communicate a simple but effective plan for this transition. Our goal
is to get students into the school and into classes safely. For this reason,
when the entry bell goes, please be sure you have your child/children at their
appropriate entry door. Teachers will collect the students from that grade, and
then bring them into the school to be organized into classes. Parents will not
be invited into the school at this time. Parents, please have a plan for how
your child is going home at the end of the day, and make sure your child
understands it (plan a meeting spot). Also, if you are planning on meeting your
child at the end of the day remember that the front parking lot is closed to
all vehicles except official school vehicles.
