🚸 Safety First! 🚌 As parents, let's work together to ensure our kids' safety during school drop-off snd. pickup. Here are a few reminders:
🚦 Follow traffic rules: Obey speed limits and stop signs near the school.
🅿️ Use designated parking areas: Don't block driveways or park in no-parking zones.
📱 Avoid distractions: Put your phone away while driving in the school zone.
🤝 Be patient: Stay calm during the drop-off and pickup rush; rushing can lead to accidents.
🚸 Watch for pedestrians: Kids may dart unexpectedly; be vigilant.
Let's create a safe environment for our little ones! 🙌 #SchoolSafety #KidsFirst #TrafficSafety #escandonpride #ljisdstudentfocuseddatadrivenresultsoriented





Attention parents:
Please be aware of our campus dress code and help our students show up ready to learn without any unnecessary distractions. We understand if your child does not have their daily uniform shirts and know that they can always
wear a red polo.
Padres:
Por favor ayúdenos a observar la vestidura de nuestra escuela.
lunes: camiseta azul en contra de bullies
martes: camiseta roja
miércoles: camisa de colegio
jueves: camiseta roja
viernes: camiseta de nuestro orgullo del distrito
No pueden usar los zapatos crocs, shorts de basketball, ni tampoco faldas o shorts rabones arriba de la rodilla.
Entendemos si no tienen las camisetas del uniforme diario pero los niños pueden sustituir una camiseta roja en cualquier día de la semana.
Gracias por su comprensión!
