☄️ After-Hours Athlete Pick-Up Reminder ☄️

To help maintain a safe and secure environment for our students, staff, and visitors, we ask all athletic families to follow the procedures below for after-school practices and activities.

📱 Please use the SportsYou app to communicate directly with your athlete's coach regarding student pick-up arrangements or if you need access to the building.

For safety and security reasons, once school administration has left for the day, staff members are not permitted to allow individuals into the building. While we understand this may occasionally be inconvenient, these procedures help protect everyone and reduce potential safety risks.

✅ Download the SportsYou app
✅ Join your athlete's team
✅ Use SportsYou for team communication and pick-up arrangements
✅ Contact coaches directly through the app when needed

If you have any questions regarding this, please reach out to Mrs. Faller or Mr. Allard at 701-828-3334.

Thank you for your understanding, cooperation, and commitment to helping us maintain a safe environment for all Comets.

❤️🤍 We're In This Together! 🤍❤️

☄️ Important Reminder for Parents & Guardians ☄️

To help ensure a safe, secure, and efficient start to each school day, we ask for your cooperation with the following procedures:

✅ Please drop students off at the entrance doors. We understand that our younger students, especially those in preschool and the primary grades, may need a little extra encouragement or assistance saying goodbye in the morning. A staff member will be available to greet students and escort them to their classroom when needed. Allowing students to transition into the building with staff also helps them establish a consistent and confident morning routine.

✅ If a parent or guardian needs to enter the building, please report directly to the office upon arrival.

✅ To help keep traffic moving safely and efficiently, please do not park in the designated drop-off and pick-up area. These areas are intended for active loading and unloading only.

The safety of our students is our highest priority, and these procedures help us maintain a secure learning environment while ensuring a smooth arrival process for everyone.

Thank you for your partnership and cooperation as we work together to provide a safe and welcoming experience for all Comets.

❤️🤍 We're In This Together! 🤍❤️
