Upon pick up in the afternoons, it is important that children stay with parents until they have safely departed the building. Recently, pre-schoolers have run off from parents and made it all the way to the lobby before being escorted back to mom and/or dad. As a staff at McKendree, we enforce the rule “only grown-ups open doors” to both prevent this from happening and to make sure that the little ones playing in the atrium are not knocked down by the preschool hall door.

Thanks for your help in keeping everyone safe by making sure that your children are with you at all times.
