Retrieval of Student Belongings
Dear Families,
We are delighted to finally be in a position to provide you with an opportunity to retrieve student belongings. In keeping with Covid-19 measures currently in place in our Province, and the guidelines set out by NLESD, we will be having curbside/drive through pick up on Wednesday, May 20th and Thursday, May 21st on the lower parking lot (Student Drop Off Lane) of MQP.
As per District direction, we are only permitted 7 vehicles per 10 minute time slot. To organize pickup we will be using the OPTIS System. This is the same system we use for the scheduling of parent/teacher interviews and it is very user friendly. We are asking our families to book ONE appointment slot per family for pick up using our Optis System. In cases where you have multiple children, staff will reconcile the list so that siblings belongings are included during the time slot you select. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate families picking up for other families at this time.
Families who are not in a position to retrieve student belongings on either of the dates above are asked to please email kimberlyleonard@nlesd.ca
Optis will open on Friday, May 15th at 12:00pm and will close on Monday, May 18th at 1:00pm.
In Optis, you will need to:
Select a “Parking Spot #” numbered 1 through 7.
Select a student,
Select ONE time slot.
Staff will sort bags by Parking Spot # and sibling belongings will be placed together.
Once you arrive at school, staff will be onsite to direct you into your assigned parking spot. Please do not back in as this process will be done in a drive through manner. Pop your trunk and your child’s belongings will be placed in your vehicle.
Please ensure that you arrive at your scheduled time as late arrivals will impact the entire system. Please note, it is important that the guidelines in place for pick up are strictly adhered to by all. We expect your total patience, cooperation and support throughout this process.
Kimberly Leonard
Principal, MQP.
