As soon as the snow starts to melt the bikes, scooters and skateboards come out.  They are great ways for kids to get exercise and are a fun way to get to school.  But they can cause safety concerns as well.  We ask students on bikes to get off and walk the bike onto school property from the front sidewalk back.  Skateboards or scooters should be carried onto school property. Students on wheels have a hard time avoiding younger students who are walking or playing on the playground.  The same expectations for safety are true for after school or recesses.  Students must store scooters or skateboard in their backpacks or lockers during the school day.  We do not have room to store them in classrooms or at the office.
