Letter to Parents


October 18, 2018
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.
  • All Children​ ​MUST​ ​exit​ ​curb​ ​side.​

  • Parents must stay in their car.

  • Parents with students who fit more than one drop off zone should pick the zone that best fits their needs.

  • Do not double park and pull up next to the Drop off zone and let your child out of the car, this poses a serious safety concern.
Daily street closures during student dismissal have been implemented to improve the efficiency and safety of the pick-up of our students. These street closures eliminate motor vehicles in areas congested with pedestrians.

  • Please be attentive and follow the guidance of our staff members. You will see them directing traffic, helping children exit cars, and ensuring the safety of our students.

  • Do not pull into or park in Staff Parking lots.

  • Do not park in crosswalks.

  • CELL PHONE USE IS PROHIBITED in school zones.

  • As per the City of Chicago Parking signs are posted around the school: Parking is prohibited on the school side of Panama, Grace, Paris, and Waveland Avenues on school days between the hours of 7:00am-4:30pm.

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.

Sandra Carlson
Administrator in Charge
