**Campus Announcement**

Morrill/Sierramont/Piedmont campus:
Room Parents, not the class representative, need to turn in the classroom checklist when the class is over, not during the class session. 
It is imperative that Room Parents should arrive at the classroom early to assist teachers in maintaining classroom order and ensuring student safety. 

No eating is allowed in the classroom at any time.
Restore classroom condition after class. No mix and match on chairs and tables.
Avoid using apparatus within the classroom. Handle with care if need to. 

Traffic around three campuses are congested during drop off (8:45am to 9:00am) and pick up time (after 11:30am).  Please give yourself plenty of time to drop off and pick up your child(ren).
Please DO NOT STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF CITY STREET to drop off/pick up students.  All standard traffic rules apply in the streets around each campus.  San Jose police will be contacted if there are repeated violations.
Please DO NOT PARK in RED ZONE or Waiting/Loading Zone marked on the campus map.  Illegally parked vehicle will be towed at owner’s expense.  Traffic Patrol will be issuing citations and recording license plate, repeated offender will be towed.
Morrill Campus:
Additional parking spaces are available at the Church parking lot across Cropley Ave.  South Lot exit is a RIGHT TURN ONLY.  Entry to South Lot is via Cropley Ave next to BYC (Berryessa Youth Center), this is not an exit.
Sierramont Campus:
Lot A and Lot B are reserved parking for Staff and Teachers only.  This is not a drop off zone.  Lot C is for general parking and there is a drop off zone in front of the portable classrooms.  DO NOT USE KIMLEE DRIVE to drop off/pick up students without parking first, use drop off area in LOT C.
Piedmont Campus:
Main lot is accessible via Flander Drive, there is a designated drop off/pick up zone.  Exit is a RIGHT TURN ONLY, do not turn left to Piedmont road.  The smaller parking lot is reserved for Staff and Teachers only.
 
Please help to maintain the classroom condition to help BCS remain in good connection with day school teachers and administration staffs. Below are some small tips for routine practice:
a. restore chairs and tables arrangement after use
b. STAY AWAY from day school teacher’s area
c. NO food and drinks in the classroom and refrain from throwing wrappers and etc into trash bin inside the classroom.
