Important Parking Reminder!
With the temperatures being chilly this time of the year, we understand your urgency to quickly enter the building to come into school for office items or to drop off or pick up your children. However, we do ask that you review these procedures for the safety of everyone here at Salem.
Before School Drop-off
The driveway in front of the school is intended for bus and car drop-off. The parking lots should be used for cars that will be parked for any length of time, whether attended or unattended. Please do NOT PARK and leave your vehicle in the driveway in front of the school. If you think it may take some time and assistance for your child to exit the vehicle, please park in a parking lot and walk in with your children. We need to keep this drop-off and pick up lane moving as smoothly as possible. Also be mindful of the buses that will be dropping off children in the morning usually by 9-9:10 am so you do not block their access to the driveway.
The upper driveway in front of the church doors is available for parking to walk preschoolers into the building in the morning only.
After School Pick-up
The K-8 children will be escorted outside by the teachers to the school door entrance if they will be picked up that day. Do not park in this drive-through area. It is meant as a lane that should continue to move as students get picked up. All bus students will be taken to the driveway in front of the church to load the shuttle bus which takes them to St. Croix Catholic for their bus transfer. Do not park in the upper driveway at the end of the school day. This area is for bus pick-up only!
Preschool Family Reminder
Preschool families should park in the school parking lots on the east and south side of the school and bring their child in through the school entrance and again enter through the school entrance to pick up their child. Please do not park in the drive through areas.
