Question 1

What is the protocol for school parking & entry and exit?

Accepted Answer

Ensuring seamless traffic flow and safety during drop-off and pick-up periods is paramount at Ali's Treehouse. Parents are encouraged to park along the main road for convenient access to our premises. While mornings typically afford ample parking, afternoons may witness heightened traffic. Should parking become scarce, do not hesitate to reach out to us for assistance, even if it entails personally escorting your child to your vehicle.

Question 2

What is the schedule?

Accepted Answer

Our school day commences promptly at 8:00 am and concludes at 2:30 pm, providing a structured framework conducive to optimal learning. Timeliness is of the essence in maintaining this structure and ensuring that all students derive maximum benefit from our curriculum.

While occasional delays are understandable, habitual tardiness may incur a nominal late pick-up fee of $10 to cover additional supervision costs.

Nutrition serves as a cornerstone of holistic development. To sustain your child's vitality throughout the day, we advocate for the provision of 1 or 2 healthy snacks and a refillable water bottle.

To uphold food safety standards, students are enjoined from food sharing, with our facilities equipped with refrigeration and microwaving amenities for meal prep.
