Weekly Memo - Heritage Christian School
HERITAGE CHRISTIAN SCHOOL 4900 – 40th Avenue Hudsonville, MI 49426 January 28, 2015 Phone: 616-669-1773 Fax: 616-669-4257 SONG OF THE WEEK Psalter #189 Make haste, O God, to save; To help me, Lord, make haste; Ashamed, confounded, they shall be Who would my life lay waste. All they that seek Thy face With joy in Thee abide, And loving Thy salvation, say, Let God be magnified. M<, REMINDER: We are halfway through the year and thankful for no major transportation related accidents. Please remember that the policies in place are intended for the safety of ALL of our children. Often parents make decisions that they think are for the good of THEIR children. As those who work in the school setting daily, we desire the safety of ALL of the children. To that end and to refresh your memories: 1) When dropping off at East campus, pull as far North as you can before dropping off (please do not drop your children off by the front doors unless you have received permission to do so). Stopping sooner if you are first in line could result in a fender-bender from the person behind you who expects that you will be doing what ALL of us are supposed to do. 2) When dropping off at West campus, follow the line forward as far as possible to drop off. Pulling into a spot and dropping off disrupts traffic flow and endangers children who are crossing the lot because they were dropped off where they were supposed to be dropped off. After school, no traffic is allowed in the lot prior to busses leaving the campus. If you are picking up, join the line in the church parking lot. If you have been at school as a volunteer, please wait for the buses to leave before backing out of your parking spot. 3) If this is unclear, please call the school offices for further instructions AND if an unfamiliar driver is used (grandma or grandpa) inform them of the procedures for the good of ALL of OUR children. Thank you – Mr. B. Kuiper and HCS staff SCHOOL NEWS: Friday, January 30 Burger King, Chips, Ice Cream Workers: HCS West - Please be here by 11 AM Lindsay Schimmel, Shauna Spriensma, Paula Steenwyk; HCS East - Please be here by 11:05 AM – Tami and Kim Scholten, Alison Spronk, Faith Smit Friday, February 6 Subway, Chips, Cookies Workers: HCS West - Please be here by 11 AM Brenda Terpstra, Denise Uittenbogaard, Susan VanBaren; HCS East - Please be here by 11:05 AM – Shelly Start, Jan Talsma, Sally Timmerman, Heidi VanBaren Hot lunch order forms for February (already!!!) are coming home today and are due THIS Friday by noon!
