SCC Meeting

Safe Routes to School- Meeting with Orem City They’re working on getting funding from multiple sources. Looking to see if a signal is warranted at 200 N and 800 E. Substandard crosswalks- not wide. A possible cut-in lane to widen the drive thru area. There are bollards or delineators that are an option as well. We could create a parking district. We could add crossing guards. Paint over the bus pick up/drop off in the front.

Add crossing guard at 800 E and 200 N on the west side of the street. Add crossing guard on 400 E and 200 N. Looking at crossing guard on 800 E and 200 N, but a signal is coming in the near future.

We will be notified before our next SCC meeting.

DLI will be continuing. DLI is looking to make it so the students will go to China as part of the program.

Stakeholder report was handed out.

They may disband DCC. The SCC chairs would attend the cluster meetings and other meetings
that DCC has been attending.

Parents,

As we are now in the middle of winter we need a little help with our drop off zones. If you are picking up your child in the parking area we ask that you not wave the child across traffic. Instead wait until you are at the crosswalk area where we have suppervision. If you need to pick up your child before this area please park the car and walk to the crosswalk area. This will make for a much safer pickup experience for your child. Here are a few reminders for our pick up zone.

  • Slow down while at schoo
  • Put your cell phones off
  • Be courteous of others
  • Always watch for kids
  • Pull forward
  • Never wave students across traffic
  • At the stop sign on 800 East please make only right hand turns

Parents, please try to let your children know what the pick-up plans are for the day before they come to school, that way we don’t have to interrupt the classes to let
them know. By making the arrangements before school anxiety as to where to meet will be minimized.
