Valet Service volunteers needed for January

/ Ross Road PAC

The Ross Road Valet Service runs from 8:30 am to 8:45 am, Monday to Friday, in order to help relieve the congestion in the drop-off zone during the morning rush, and to ensure the roads in front of the school are safe for pedestrians and drivers.

This valuable service is run 100% by parent and student volunteers. To keep it going in January we need more parent volunteers to step forward.

  • The time commitment is small – it only involves volunteering for 20 minutes (from 8:25am to 8:45am), one day a week for one month.
  • If you have a child(ren) in grades 5,6 or 7 how about teaming up with them and do valet together once a week?
  • If you can’t do valet, please encourage your Grade 5-7 child(ren) to team up with their friends to do valet!

If you can help out now or in the future, please use the sign-up form below.

Thank you for your support and cooperation!

A few other reminders:

  • Last chance to be included in the Ross Road School Directory! Please submit your PAC Contact Permission Form by Monday, October 31st. Click here for more details.
  • If you’d like to advertise in the Ross Road School Directory, please submit your ad by Monday, October 31st. Click here for more details.

And a note from the office about the Halloween Parade:

On Monday October 31st we will be holding our annual Halloween Parade, starting at 2:00pm.  Parents are welcome to come and join in the fun.  Please be aware that we need to keep the parade route clear for students, consequently, we are asking that parents take up position either in the gym outside the cones, or on the office side of the Foyer behind the cones.  Please do not stand in the hallways or by the front door as this will block the student’s progress.

Children may come to school in their costumes or dressed in black and orange.  Just a reminder that if fake weapons or any other sharp objects are part of the costume, we would ask that students leave those at home.

Many of you will be taking photos so just a reminder that we cannot post photos of students at school events on blogs or facebook etc. without their parents’ express consent.

Thanks so much for your cooperation in these matters
Have a spooky day!

Ross Road “Valet Service” is up and running again…and needs parent volunteers!

/ Ross Road PAC

As promised, the Ross Road Valet Service began on the first full day of school and it was a huge success! It was amazing how smoothly the first morning drop-off went!

CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS:

  • This valuable service is run 100% by parent and student volunteers and so to keep it going throughout the year we need more parent volunteers to step forward.
  • The time commitment is small – it only involves volunteering for 25 minutes (from 8:25am to 8:50am), one day a week for one month.
  • If you can help out now or in the future, please contact Nancy Barton at nancybinbc@hotmail.com

The Valet Service runs from 8:30 am to 8:45 am, Monday to Friday in order to help relieve the congestion in the drop-off zone (see map below) during the morning rush and to ensure the roads in front of the school are safe for pedestrians and drivers.

To help the valet service run smoothly, here are a few important points to remember:

  • Look for the volunteers in the safety vests and follow their directions.
  • Have your children ready to go (i.e. jackets on, backpacks with them, explain to them that you will not be getting out of the car)
  • There is NO PARKING in the drop-off zone.
  • All drivers must remain in their cars.
  • If you would like to walk your children to class, please park in the designated area on Ross Road or Kilkenny Road.

Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
