🦊 Our Foxes are off to a wonderful start! They’re learning classroom routines and procedures, making new friends, and showing us all they already know. Our halls and windows are beginning to fill with first-week projects, artwork, and evidence that learning is already underway! 📚✨

Take a peek at some of the beautiful artwork from our littlest Foxes in PreK 3! 🎨🦊 We can’t wait to see all the learning and creativity that unfolds this year!

🚗Carline Key Points to Remember!

We appreciate everyone’s help in keeping carline safe, smooth, and moving efficiently! Here are a few important reminders:

🔹 Double-Lane Carline: We operate a double-lane carline, and cars are pulled forward 4 at a time from alternating lanes.

🔹 Students are loaded at one of our four colored poles:
🔴 Red | 🟡 Yellow | 🔵 Blue | 🟢 Green.
Your child will be called to their assigned color pole, where a Fordham staff member will be waiting to assist them into your vehicle.

🔹 Passenger Side Loading: Students will be unloaded and loaded into the passenger side of the vehicle.

🔹 Display Your Orange Car Sign: Please make sure your orange car sign is clearly visible so our staff can quickly identify your student.

🔹 Authorized Pick-Up: If another family member or friend will be picking up your student, please make sure they are listed in Skyward as an approved pick-up person.

🔹 Buckle Up in the Grass Area: After your student is loaded, please pull forward to the grassy area to buckle your child. This allows us to continue loading cars behind you and keeps carline moving at a good pace.

Thank you for helping us make carline safe, efficient, and successful for everyone! 🧡🦊💙
