YONDR pouches and Middle School

Caroline County Public Schools

With a goal of creating a welcoming, safe, and focused learning environment for students, and the best possible conditions for staff to support students, cell phone restrictions were put in place in 2022. Results were fairly positive. However, the enforcement of those restrictions resulted in a loss of valuable instruction time as issues were addressed.

CAR RIDERS MORNING AND AFTERNOON

Logistics

Morning Entry

Any student being dropped off in the morning should be dropped at the first parking lot (staff parking lot). There will be a staff member assigned to the area.The student will then walk to the building using the designated walkway. Cars should NOT drive up to the front of the school building during the morning entry. We have a bus that may need that space.

Due to the high volume of traffic, please limit the time between pulling up and letting your student out of the car.Make sure the student has their belongings on them and is ready to exit the car upon stopping at the designated area.

Students will not be let into the building before 7:15am, so please be mindful of that drop off time, especially during cases of inclement weather. Staff is not scheduled to be on duty prior to that time.

Dismissal Time

All students exit the building at the same time! School dismisses at 2:34pm. If you are here earlier than that, please DO NOT pull up to the front of the building. We have 2 buses that have to pick up students directly in the front of the school. Blocking these buses' entry can negatively impact the schedule for our students.

Promoting a healthy and safe environment for ALL students and staff.

CCPS is committed to providing a safe, respectful, nurturing educational environment where the worth and dignity of individuals are valued and their safety and rights are protected. Behaviors that compromise this environment, interfere with school operations or are otherwise contrary to the basic mission of our public schools will not be tolerated. Bullying, hazing, harassment or other discrimination affecting a student or a staff member should be reported by a victim, parent/guardian, witness, staff member or other person having knowledge.

Staff members with knowledge of such conduct are required to promptly report it to the building principal.

NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY

Caroline County Public Schools prohibits discrimination in its educational programs, and in employment, on the basis of actual or perceived race, color, religion, national origin, sex, age, marital status, sexual orientation, genetic information, gender identity, or disability.
