A key tool we will use to drive this work is the use of benchmark assessments like i-Ready. These assessments give us the data we need to improve teaching and learning in every classroom and ensure all students are on the path to success.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-removefontsize=\"true\" data-originalcomputedfontsize=\"18.719999\">As a district, we are committed to using data like i-Ready to improve outcomes for all learners.

Bans<\/u><\/h3>\n<p><i>How do parking bans work?<\/i><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Typically, an on-street parking ban is put into effect when two or more inches of snow are forecasted.<\/li>\n<li>Once declared, all vehicles must be moved off the streets during the designated time.<\/li>\n<li>Parking bans are announced on the city\u2019s website, social media platforms, CodeRED alerts, and local radio and TV broadcasts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><i>Avoid fines and towing:<\/i><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Vehicles left on the street during a parking ban will be towed at the owner\u2019s expense or fined $100.<\/li>\n<li>After the parking ban is lifted, vehicles must be removed from municipal parking areas within\u00a0two hours\u00a0or risk towing and a $100 fine.<\/li>\n<li>It is vital that cars are moved into city lots, and then removed from city lots in a timely manner.<\/li>\n<li>If cars are left on the street during a ban, this delays the Department of Public Works in their snow removal process, meaning it will take longer for our streets to be cleaned.<\/li>\n<li>On the opposite end of the parking ban, it is crucial that cars are removed within the two hour period after lifting the parking ban. Most designated lots are school parking lots. If residents do not remove their car in a timely fashion, it can delay school re-openings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><i>Alternate parking locations:<\/i><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>During parking bans, municipal lots throughout the city are available for parking.

When dropping off your child or children, please pull right up to the car in front of you, and either myself, or a student safety patrol member will open the door for you. Stay in your vehicle. I am also asking that students be on the right hand side of the car(side closest to the building), this is for safety reasons, I do not want the safety patrol or younger students exiting the vehicle from the traffic side. Do not have your child exit the vehicle until the door is opened by either myself, or a member of the safety patrol.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0All students, Grades K-5 will enter the building through Door#1( main door).
