Upon entering school property along the white fence, please stay in a single file line. Wait patiently single file and do not pass other vehicles or block the buses. (Cars may be coming in to walk students into their class or drop things off at the office.) Staying in a single file line the entire time will help ensure safety of not only our students but the drivers of all vehicles.
Please pull all the way forward along the yellow curb.
Drivers PLEASE remain in your vehicle as students exit.
Stay behind the driver in front of you (even after your child has exited your car), still in a single file line, to exit the drop-off zone.
Please follow the crossing guard’s instructions and remember that pedestrians have the right-of-way.
Please turn right out of the school property. This helps alleviate so much congestion on our narrow street.

Afternoon Pick-Up

Please follow the same procedure as listed above.
However, once your child has safely entered your vehicle; you may go around the cars in head of you to exit the school property.

**In order to keep all children safe, please remember to be attentive at all times. Distractions such as cell phones should not be used so drivers will be able to watch for students as well as teacher signals. **

Parent-Teacher Conferences

Parent-teacher conferences in elementary school play a crucial role in fostering a strong partnership between parents and educators, ultimately benefiting the child's academic and emotional growth. These meetings provide an invaluable opportunity for parents to gain insight into their child's progress, strengths, and areas for improvement while allowing teachers to share observations and strategies tailored to the child's unique learning style. By maintaining open communication, parents and teachers can work together to ensure that every child receives the support they need to succeed in school and beyond.

Step-By-Step Parent/Guardian Instructions for Scheduling Parent-Teacher Conferences

Safety at River Heights Elementary

Keeping our students, employees, and school visitors safe is a top priority. We regularly review and practice safety processes and procedures in our schools.

BUILDING SECURITY
Extensive measures have been taken at each CCSD school to ensure building security. We ask that parents support these efforts by checking in at the main office whenever they visit the school. Additionally, students and parents are encouraged to report any security or safety concerns immediately. To report a safety concern, please speak with a school administrator or, to report it anonymously, utilize SafeUT.

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS
Our district has adopted standard response protocols (SRPs) as part of our school safety plan, which establishes uniform, planned, and practiced response to an emergency or incident. Monthly drills are held at each school so students and staff can become familiar with and practice the SRPs. The SRPs are:

HOLD. Students and staff remain in the room or area.
SECURE. Students and staff are inside the building with locked exterior doors.
LOCKDOWN. Interior doors are locked, lights are off, students and staff are out of sight.
SHELTER. Students and staff shelter in place and respond to the hazard appropriately.
EVACUATE. Students and staff move to an announced location.

To learn more about these safety protocols, please visit our district website's safety pages.
