Important Safety Reminders
As the beautiful spring weather arrives, we wanted to share some safety reminders.
Please be cautious when driving, as many children are walking and biking to school. Please be mindful before and after school as the children are also out playing and enjoying the weather.
A Fairfax County Police Officer shared with us this morning that several children had darted across Melville. Please remember that students should only be let out in the Kiss and Ride designated areas for safety.
Also, please remind your children that they should only cross at the crosswalk, unless they are crossing with an adult.
Kiss and Ride Reminders
- The designated Kiss & Ride area is located in the parking lot. It is unsafe for the students to be dropped on Melville Lane.
- Load and unload in the Kiss & Ride area only.
- Pull forward as far as possible into the designated Kiss & Ride lane before loading or unloading.
- In the Kiss & Ride line, stay in a single line. IT IS UNSAFE TO PASS OTHER CARS!!
- Children should enter and exit cars from the passenger side ONLY.
- Please refrain from using cell phones in Kiss & Ride.
- When pulling into and out of Kiss and Ride, please be mindful of the speed in which you drive your car.
Thank you for your support in keeping all of our children safe!
