Dear New River Panther Families,
We hope this message finds you well. We want to inform you about an important change regarding car rider drop-off for New River Primary School students, effective Tuesday, April 22, 2025.
Morning Drop-Off: Students will now be dropped off at the front doors of the school. This change aims to improve traffic flow within our building and enhance the overall efficiency of the evolve system. Staff will be present outside to greet your children during drop-off.
Evening Pick-Up: The pick-up procedure will remain unchanged, with students continuing to be picked up on the side of the building as usual. Please remember that if no staff members are outside during drop-off times, parents should not leave their children unattended. This procedure is crucial for ensuring the safety of all students. Thank you for your cooperation and support as we implement this adjustment to better serve our students.
Best regards,
Lee R. Jones
