NILES Parents/Guardians,

This is just a friendly reminder that on Tuesday, September 27th, 2016, Niles will be practicing a Fire Drill promptly at 10:30 AM. Parents are welcome to park on the street. Please also remember to sign in if you your child arrives during this time. Practicing emergency evacuations are very important so please make sure to drop your child off on time to ensure your child’s participation.

Our drills also give us an opportunity to test out our alarm systems. The teachers regularly talk to the children regarding the importance of these monthly safety drills and also prepare them for the loud siren that emanates from our alarm systems during the drill.

What Happens? In the event of an emergency we will exit the building, line the children up outside of the school, and take attendance. Our school is always equipped with food, water, emergency kits and equipment. Fire drills/earthquake drills are practiced on a monthly basis to prepare children and staff for a safe exit in the event of an emergency. It is important that you keep all personal information updated (phone numbers and address).

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let the front desk know.

We thank you for your cooperation and support. Have a wonderful day!

Dear LAPMS-Niles Parents,

In an effort to keep our parking lot safe and efficient we would like to encourage everyone to please be extra cautious and courteous to other drivers when parking, backing up, etc. Also, please be aware that we have children and pedestrians passing through so please try to maintain a slow speed when driving through the parking lot. We would like to kindly ask all parents not to linger in the parking lot after picking up their child(ren) and to park within the lines due to the limited parking spaces.

Here are a few safety tips that drivers should observe when dropping children off at school and picking them up:
• Obey the speed limit and traffic rules
• Park in designated areas only. DO NOT PARK IN THE DISABLED PARKING SPOT, unless you have a disabled parking permit.
• Obey the school’s drop-off and pick up rules
• Be courteous to other drivers
• Remind students to look both ways in the parking lot, even though it is not a street.
• Please make sure that your child is by your side at all times in the parking lot. DO NOT allow children to run in the parking lot.
• Do not leave your older or younger children in the car without any adult supervision. Please bring them inside as you are picking up/dropping off your child.
• The parking lot closes promptly at 6:30 pm and for the safety of you and your child, please do not allow your child to run or play around in the parking lot
• Make sure to hold your child’s hand in the parking lot and drop off your child inside the classroom.
