Are You Ready to Raise Craze?
Raise Craze is a two-week fundraising event where we track acts of kindness to raise money to continue our efforts in updating the school courtyard. Learn more about Raise Craze by watching this kick off video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7hFIEJ9HhM
Get your student set up with their Raise Craze online account today at my.raisecraze.com/BUES. You’ll need to enter at least one email address to get your student signed up but then you can share their Raise Craze website via your social media accounts. Raise Craze has made this super easy for us.
We can’t wait to hear all of the amazing and thoughtful ways our students find to spread kindness while fundraising for their school!
Our school Barnstable United Elementary School,ID#: 06000 has the opportunity to participate in and earn CASH from A+ School Rewards, a great fundraising program run through your local Stop & Shop! Last year our school received over $11,000 that was used for field trips, student enrichment, field day, and much more!
Even if you have a student at another school, it is OK as each card can link 3 schools at one time. |
School hours are from 8:10 a.m. to 2:40 p.m.
Parent Drop-Off Procedure: Time of drop-off: 7:50-8:10 am
Parent Pick-Up Procedure:
Students who will be picked up every day, or have a note in the morning to be picked up that day, will exit the building entrance at 2:30 p.m., where staff will supervise dismissal. Should you need to pick up your child early, please sign him or her out in the main office.
Time of pick-up: 2:30-2:50 pm--The announcement is made at 2:30pm.
School hours are from 8:10 a.m. to 2:40 p.m.
Parent Drop-Off Procedure: Time of drop-off: 7:50-8:10 am
- Cars arrive in a single file line and pull up to the curb from the front of the building to the end of the gym. Basically, this area is from the front crosswalk to the beginning of the curb by the gym (about 8-9 cars at a time).
- This line of cars of 8-9 cars will unload. Children exit on the curb side only and walk along the sidewalk to the main entrance.
- All cars drop off and leave in the order that they arrived. This will maintain the single line of cars from the point of arrival to drop-off to exit, avoiding any accidents from passing stopped vehicles.
Parent Pick-Up Procedure:
Students who will be picked up every day, or have a note in the morning to be picked up that day, will exit the building entrance at 2:30 p.m., where staff will supervise dismissal. Should you need to pick up your child early, please sign him or her out in the main office.
Time of pick-up: 2:30-2:50 pm--The announcement is made at 2:30pm.
- All parents/guardians must use the pick up line. Parking in the lots at dismissal is not permitted. Parking your car and walking to meet your child slows down the line of traffic and adds to the number of people crossing in front of cars. For the safety of your child and to move the line of traffic more efficiently, remain in your car and a staff member will bring your child to you.
- Cars arrive in two lanes and pull down to the front crosswalk. Cones will mark the pull-up stopping point and will mark the end of the first group of cars. Children will be loaded into that group of cars only.
- Cars within the cones must turn their engines off, an important safety measure recommended by the Barnstable Police Department. Once the cars are loaded, the staff member on the crosswalk will signal when it is safe to exit. Cars waiting for stragglers who are not outside will be rerouted back into the parent line.
