  • No rock or stick throwing
  • No screaming
  • No running
  • Go with your parents when you get out of school
  • Stay out of the garden areas
  • Walk your bikes on the sidewalks and blacktop areas
  • No loitering

Also, please respect the fact that teachers are busy working in their classrooms and will not be able to supervise.
