Wednesday Wire, August 14, 2024

Parents,

We had great first days of school and we are excited to have all of our ECC students join us today!

The Wednesday Wire is our weekly communication with parents. The Wednesday Wire features weekly announcements, reminders, a glimpse at the calendar for the next month, and a link to flyers with detailed information about upcoming events and deadlines. Please make sure to take time each week to look through The Wednesday Wire so you can stay informed.

Don't forget to follow us on social media to see all that is happening throughout the school year!

Announcements

Carpool Notes
- Please do not park on White Station during arrival or dismissal.
- Please do not block our neighbors’ driveways during dismissal.
- Please do not walk up to where the children gather after school to get your child. Please use the Park and Pick up option instead if you are walking up to get your child.
- If you are choosing the Park and Pick up option, please make note of the no parking signs on Shady Grove and also try to avoid parking on both sides of the street.
- Permission to Walk from School It is imperative that the school personnel are aware of where each child is to be dismissed at the end of the school day. It is in the interest of each student’s safety that we require this note be sent into the school office each school year. Only students returning this form will be allowed to walk from campus to a home in the neighborhood. Students may NOT walk to neighboring streets to be picked up. Students may only walk to their home if it is within a reasonable distance from the school. We do have the Park and Pick Up option where parents can park, and their child can be waiting at the dining hall entrance. Please return this form to the school office if your child is walking home from school. https://stlouismemphis.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Permission-to-Walk-from-School.pdf Thank you!
- Please place your carpool name tag on the passenger side of your vehicle during carpool and please keep it visible until your child/children is/are in your car!
