October Safety Update

Safety Drills
On October 17th, we joined the Great Shakeout earthquake drill, in commemoration of the Loma Prieta earthquake on the same date in 1989.  Earlier in the month, we had a surprise evacuation drill at lunch and the students were well organized and attentive. We’ll be conducting emergency drills monthly, in compliance with the SMCOE sponsored Big Five training.  

Cell Phone Policy Reminder
Please remind students that cell phones and all other electronic devices must be turned off and placed in their backpack from 8:35 AM until the end of the school day. This includes breakfast and lunch break times. Thank you for helping us maintain this important safety rule.  

Lunch Supervision
We could still use more help with lunch supervision on the yard. It is nice to see the kids enjoying the new yard, and more adults increases safety for all. Volunteer.

Lost and Found
Please remind students to go to the front lobby or Shea Center to retrieve lost items and to remember to pick up their sweatshirts and jackets at the bell.  We are still seeing plenty of clothes left in the yard. Clothes left on Fridays will be donated.

Drop Off and Pick Up
We appreciate everyone’s continued cooperation in keeping all of our students safe both in transit to and from school and while on campus.

• Pull up all the way past the electronic sign so cars behind you won’t double park.

• In front of the school, do not double park, U-Turn, or allow your child to cross the street alone.

• Maintain a safe speed; not more than 25 mph in front of a school.

• Do not leave your vehicle unattended in the school’s white zone.

• Keep the Taylor front driveway clear for maintenance purposes.

• Students should be dropped off by 8:20 AM and in their class by 8:35 AM:

  1. Shea Center’s traffic circle at end of Minorca Wy.

  2. white zone on Taylor Blvd. in front of school

  3. District Office’s parking lot off Richmond Dr.

• Pick Up Time is 3:15 PM on Mon/Tues/Fri, and 2:15 PM on Wed/Thurs.

Bikes, Skateboards, and Scooters/E-Scooters

• Bikes must be locked on the rack outside of B Hall. Helmets are required by law.

• Skateboards and scooters must NOT be ridden on campus.

• Rollerblades and shoes with wheels are NOT allowed on campus.

• When students are coming on and off campus, students will walk their bicycle, skateboard, or scooter to a complete stop at the edge of campus.

• Note: Taylor is not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged personal items brought to school.

Boundaries - Obey the Red Lines

For safety reasons the follow areas are off-limits during recess and lunch:

• Parking areas and front lawn; hallways and in between buildings

• Behind or beside the gym; past the third base fence line on the baseball field

• On the walking path around the field and on the hill behind the volleyball courts.

Thank you for your partnership in keeping all students safe!
