Curb-side Pick-up of Students’ Belongings starts Monday
Here is the procedure for returning your child’s belongings to you and collecting any school books from them. A “grocery store style curb-side pick-up” in the gym parking lot will happen on June 15-17. Before arrival, please read the following directions to keep everyone safe:
- Students are encouraged to join you. This is a chance for them to say goodbye at a safe distance to some of their teachers on duty.
- Arrive by vehicle only. No walk-ins.
- All passengers in the car should wear a mask at all times.
- Enter the Bigelow parking lot from the first entrance on Park St, and follow the one way path through the parking lot.
- Place a sign on your dashboard with your child’s name, cluster and homebase before entering the parking lot.
- Please put in a bag any school textbooks, library books, or other property of Bigelow and leave it in your trunk for easy retrieval.
- Please remain in your car at all times. Once in the pick-up zone by the gym, please open your trunk. We will put your child’s belongings in your trunk.
At this pick-up, teachers will load your car’s trunk with a bag of your child’s belonging and will collect from you any school issued textbooks. library books, and other property of Bigelow. Please check your home for any materials, and put them in a plastic bag with your child’s full name in it in your trunk so that we can easily retrieve it.
