Drop off and Pick up Procedures

Please only drop off and pick up your students in the cutout along Pleasantview before and after school so they can safely use the sidewalk, or park on a side street to walk them up to the doors. Thank you also for continuing to not double park, or park in the BUS ZONE by the little playground, or park across the street to have your child cross through traffic alone. Your continued support in this area will make it safer and smoother for all our students and parents. Please remember cars should NOT be left unattended in drop off and pick up area along Pleasantview. Park on a side street if you want to walk up to the building.

· Communicable Disease:  Communicable illnesses in which you have been advised to remain out of school until cleared to return by the county health department or your child’s doctor.

In a continuing effort to ensure the safety of students and staff at Fisher Elementary, we will be reviewing and practicing the procedures for the various emergency drills including:

¨ Fire Drills:  This drill is completed monthly if weather allows.  Students are moved away from the building quickly. All students and staff are accounted for.

¨ Tornado Drills:  This drill is practiced 4 times a year. Students are moved to designated spots away from windows and outside doors.

¨ In-Place Shelter:  This is a procedure we would use if there were a possibility of a dangerous situation in the neighborhood.  The outside doors are locked and no one is permitted to enter or leave the building until we know the danger is no longer there.  The practice date for this drill is yet to be determined.

¨ Lock Down:  If the danger should become a real threat or there is an intruder in the building, we would go into lock down.  Students go into the nearest room where there is an adult.  Classroom doors and windows are locked. Students are to remain quiet until notified that it is safe. The practice date for this drill is yet to be determined.¨

Evacuation:  There may someday be a situation where we need to evacuate the building and know we will not be able to re-enter it that day.  We will lead our children to St. Henry’s Church.  Parents will be notified as to where their child can be picked up.  The practice date for this drill is yet to be determined.

If your family or someone you know is experiencing difficult times and is in need of some assistance with food, please contact us to set up an appointment. The Fisher Pantry is open between the hours of 9:00 am and 1:00 pm to make your food order and arrange a pick up time, please call 754-1030.
