Snack Rules! (1)

New Security at William Ford

You may have noticed that we have the new security system installed that was part of the SMART bond passed by voters last year.

All doors to the school will remain locked at all times.

If you need to visit the school for any reason, you must come to the main doors (by the flag pole). There is a button to the right of the doors. Press the button and someone will greet you through the intercom and unlock the door.

Please keep in mind that office personnel are working and it may take a moment or two to answer.

Please make sure Students bring All homework, snack, jackets, birthday treats, etc. to school with them in the morning.

نظام أمني جديد في مدرسة وليم فورد

قد لاحظ بعضكم أو جميعكم أنه قد قمنا بتركيب جهازاأمنيا جديدا كان جزءا من سندات السمارت (SMART) التي أقرّها الناخبون في العام الماضي.

لذلك فإن جميع أبواب المدرسة ستبقى مقفلة في جميع الأوقات
إذا كنتم في حاجة لزيارة المدرسة لأي سبب من الأسباب, يجب عليكم إستعمال الباب الرئيسي للمدرسة الواقع بالقرب من عمود العلم الأمريكي. هناك زر على يمين الباب. عليكم بالضغط على هذا الرز و سوف تقوم أحد الموظفات بمكتب المدرسة بفتح الباب عن طريق الإتصال الإلكتروني الداخلي.
نرجوا منكم الأخذ بعين الإعتبار إنشغال الموظفات في المكتب بعدة واجبات أخرى و قد يستغرق فتح الباب بعض الوقت.
كما نرجو منكم العمل على التأكد من أن الطلاب قد أحضروا كل واجباتهم(الفروض المنزلية) و وجبة الغداء بالإضافة إلى السترات الخارجية أو المعاطف و كذلك أي حلويات أو كيك خاص بأعياد الميلاد, في الصباح عند حضورهم إلى المدرسة حتى لا تضطرون إلى إحضارها.
