The physical safety
and security of our children is of paramount
concern. With that in mind, professional
security patrol of all school entrances
and perimeter are secured and monitored.
These well trained security guards are in
constant contact with the school office
and administration, as well as with their
own security headquarters. They also understand
the mindset of children, and create an atmosphere
of naturalness and ease.
Staff and parents are
required to wear photo identification badges
when on school grounds. Anyone not wearing
a Maimonides Academy badge is required to
enter the school through the main office
where a temporary badge is issued. Badges
and photos, for new parents, may be obtained
in the front office. Replacement badges
may be ordered through the front office
for a moderate fee.
In addition, Maimonides
Academy has created a Parent Security Committee.
Part of the committees responsibility, is
to ensure that all security related concerns
are satisfactorily addressed in a proactive
manner.
All cars picking up
Maimonides Academy children during carpool
must display, on the windshield of their
car, a permanent Maimonides Academy identification
(ID) sticker. No child is released to a
car without an ID sticker. Maimonides ID
stickers are available in the front office
for all parents who's children attend Maimonides
Academy. Our children's welfare can only
be fully addressed when school and parents
work hand-in-hand. Maimonides will expect
and enforce total parental cooperation with
regard to school security needs and procedures.
Additionally, all cars
in the Maimonides Academy parking lot, as
well as cars parked on Beverly Place, must
also display the permanent Maimonides Academy
ID sticker in their window. Any vehicle
not displaying this ID sticker will quickly
be towed away for security reasons. |
