Safety Policies

Dismissals

If you are picking your child up at the end of school please be here at 2:50, sign him/her out on the clip board provided and wait in the cafeteria until dismissal at 3:00 PM.

If anyone other than a child’s parent is to dismiss them from school, a note MUST be sent with your child that morning to informthe office of the change. For safety reasons, ONLY PARENTS/GUARDIANS are allowed to dismiss a child without written consent. We do not use a “pick-up list”.

Visitors

All visitors must check in at the front office. Only parents of preschoolers are allowed to walk their child down to class. All other students and parents are to check in at the office and we will ensure that the student gets to class. If you would like to speak with your child’s teacher please make an appointment first. We will accommodate your schedule.

Busses

Please call the Transportation Department at 508-646-4400 with bussing questions. Temporary bus switching is NOT ALLOWED. (for play-dates, etc.)

Parking & Traffic Patterns

Please observe the ONE WAY, NO PARKING, & Handicap Parking signs posted. Also, please reduce your speed when traveling on school property. Drop-off and dismissal time can become very hazardous for children & parents if these safety rules are ignored. Also, please do not park or travel in the front U - this area is for busses ONLY. Thank You for your attention to this matter.
With many parents waiting out front to get their Luther students off busses, there is a lot of congestion in the bus area. Please make sure that your children do not play on the sidewalks near the busses at dismissal time.

Volunteering & CORI Checks

The Hoyle Elementary School is committed to developing each child's abilities to the fullest extent possible with all the available resources available. Extra activities include School Spirit Days, Family Movie Night, Book Fairs, and various in school programs and field trips. Parent volunteers assist in the library, computer labs, and PTO activities.

CORI checks are required for all school volunteers and personnel. These must be done every three years for safety reasons. We suggest doing this at the beginning of the school year as this check takes several weeks to come back.

You may come to the school to fill out the required form during school hours or see Marlene Santos at the Swansea School Administration Office from 9 AM –2 PM Monday through Thursday. Please make sure to have a photo ID with you. Sorry, we cannot accept CORI checks done at another location. Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation!
