Dear Parent/Guardian,
The safety of your child(ren) and all of our students is our number one priority. The traffic expectations listed below help to keep our children safe and expedite the process of getting your children to and from school safely.
-To improve safety and the flow of traffic around the school we currently have a morning kiss and drive program.
-Kindergarten (rooms 128 & 129), 1st, 2nd and 3rd, 6th grade will be dropped off on Paris Ave. A drop off line will be marked with cones on the East side of the street with no parking on that side.
-Kindergarten (room 101) 4 th , 5 th , 7 th , and 8th grade will be dropped off on Panama Ave. A drop off line will be marked with cones on the West side of the street with no parking on that side.
We are working collaboratively with The Chicago Police Department and Alderman Sposato to ensure the safety of all students, parents, staff, and community members around Canty school. Please be advised that all State and Chicago laws will be enforced.
Thank you for your cooperation.
