Lower School Dismissal Protocol for Today


For those attending today's KFPA Winter Wonderland Cookie Decorating Party, we will use the same procedure as we did for the Movie Afternoon to streamline the transition from dismissal to the gym. Please see below for dismissal details.

  • Beginning at 2:50, all students will be dismissed from the LS entrance, regardless of whether they attend Cookie Decorating.
    • Students who are not attending will sign out as usual and leave school with their grown-up.
    • Lower School students attending the event will not sign out.
  • Students attending the event will go with their adults around the side of the building to the Kew-Forest Lane entrance.
    • Security will be at the gate to allow entrance.
  • Adults and children will enter the gym through the entrance closest to the K-F Lane gate.
    • Parents will sign in once they enter the gym. Staff will be on hand with iPads to help everyone sign in.
    • Parents: if you have not yet set up your SchoolPass, please follow these instructions before arriving at Kew-Forest.
  • The Kew-Forest Lane gate and the LS entrance will close at 3:15. Parents arriving after 3:15 will enter through the main entrance to sign in and pick up their children in Afterschool.*
*If you are looking for parking, please pick up your child before 3:15 from the Lower School Entrance to avoid them having to go to Aftercare and incurring the Emergency Drop-Off fee.
 
This should help alleviate congestion and confusion and expedite everyone's (re)entry into the building for the event. 
 
Enjoy the Winter Wonderland Cookie Decorating Party!
