Rachael (Site Coordinator) provides lunch supervision each day, so occasionally the office may be closed during that time. If you need to speak with one of us during closed times, you can find us out at the lunch tables. Thank you!

1) Please park in the Excelsior Middle School parking lot. If ever there is not enough room in that lot, you may park in the Excelsior Theater or Gym parking lots. Please do not ever park on the grass as that can break the sprinklers in the lawn and that is not our property to park on. Thank you!

2) You can park along the fence in front of the school, but not in the lot in front of our school as that is reserved.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation!

You may drop your child off in front of the school for classes and services, but there is no parking allowed. This includes no parking in this lot , along the fence, or along the building. This lot is for the Byron District Office Staff, and they need to be able to get in and out of the lot at any time. Thanks for your help with this!

Novels and pictures books can be found in the Oak Room and you are free to browse these books any time that a staff member is present. The curriculum in Room 13 you can browse with your advisor before or after your monthly meetings.

We love when our students are able to share concerns with us directly, but having an anonymous option is really helpful for some! We have a safety line in place for this.

STUDENTS CAN EASILY AND CONFIDENTIALLY REPORT THE FOLLOWING SITUATIONS:

• BULLYING
• PEERS IN CRISIS
• PLANNED FIGHTS
• THREATS OF VIOLENCE
• OTHER URGENT SITUATIONS
