Emergency Information

Parents, please notify the office if you change your phone numbers or address. It is very important that we are able to reach a child's parent or guardian should there be an emergency. A student will not be allowed to leave or be picked up by anyone not listed on the emergency card without consent from the parent or guardian.

Safety Tips

To ensure student safety, the entrance to the school is through the front entrance only. All visitors must ring the buzzer and wait to have the door unlocked. After entering the building, all visitors and volunteers must sign in at the office.

Teachers will discuss traffic safety, bike safety, fire safety, playground safety, and personal safety with the children within the first two weeks of school.

Before and after school, parents should cross at the designated crosswalks. After school, students will be walked out the main entrance toward the crosswalk.

Skateboards, scooters, rollerblades, and skates are not allowed at Jackson because we want students to be safe. If children ride their bikes to school, please remember to ride on the sidewalk, and walkers have the right of way. It is always extremely dangerous to ride in the alleys and in the middle of the street.

If parents bring their child to school and pick them up at the end of the day, they must use the carpool line. Safety Patrol students are in the carpool line to help students in and out of the car safely in the mornings. For student safety, they will not be allowed to meet parents in the parking lots or in the bus lane. Parents may choose to park the car on Jackson Drive and walk to the front of the school to meet their child.

Please remember that no pets are allowed on school property for the health and safety of our students and parents.
