Dear P.L. Julian Families,
We are so grateful to be part of such a strong and supportive community. Our school is not only a place for learning, but also a shared space within our neighborhood, and we want to ensure we are being respectful and considerate of those who live around us.
During dismissal, it has been reported that some of our neighbors’ driveways along Carver Drive are being blocked, making it difficult for them to enter and exit their homes. We want to be proactive in supporting our community and ask for your help.
• If possible, we kindly ask that families approach the school from the west side during dismissal to help reduce congestion and avoid blocking driveways along Carver. This small adjustment can make a big difference for our neighbors.
• We also ask that if you find yourself in a situation where your vehicle may be blocking a driveway, please be kind and courteous by moving your car promptly so that our neighbors can access their homes without difficulty.
• As an additional option, families are welcome to park in the lot just north of the school and walk across the street to pick up your child in the walking line, if that works well for you. This can be a helpful way to ease traffic and keep dismissal running smoothly.
We truly appreciate your partnership in helping us be respectful members of our community. Your support ensures that we continue to build strong, positive relationships with our neighbors while keeping our students safe and our dismissal efficient. Thank you for all you do to support our school and our community.
With appreciation,
Ms. Marques
