Brrr! With the cold weather, we would like to try a new plan for picking up your child from Belle Valley at 3:15pm. Please pull in an actual parking spot and come into the glass entryway to meet your child. Do not come into the building. The teachers will be bringing the students to the foyer area and will release them to you when identified. Please do not park next to the curb at anytime. The students will not be released outside the building until the weather breaks. You must come into the glass entry way to pick up your child. Again, please park in an actual parking spot, not at the curb.
Thanks and have a great day!
