A Few Final Reminders:

Family and guardian supervision is required at all times.
Please respect the playground equipment; students are not allowed to climb up slides. If this rule is violated, the student will be asked to leave.
Restrooms and a water station will be available in the gym hallway—please enter through Door 10.
All afterschool programs, including Enrichment and Discovery Link, will proceed as normally scheduled. However, the staff parking lot will close at 2:45 PM, so families picking up students from these programs must park on the street and walk to the designated door.

In the event of an emergency, Teller staff will be communicating to participants via Teller’s outdoor speaker system instructions. All Teller staff and volunteers who are working the event will be wearing Teller badges, please connect with one of them if you are in need of any help.
