🚨 Safety Alert - Dojo & School Rules 🚨
To All Parents, Staff, & Instructors:
As a reminder the School & Dojo has the following traditional rules in place:
Additional Security Measures:
In response, to the recent violence & attempted abductions throughout the City ( see the links below for recent events ), the School has implemented the following policies - effective immediately:
Only Adults or Black Belts are allowed to answer and/or open the door to the school. Including locking or unlocking the door for Clients, Guests or Students.
Reasons: Adults tend to have a better understanding of a danger at the door vs someone’s auntie, uncle, granddad, etc...
Once on campus, ALL children ( 18 & younger ) are to stay on campus & in the building until their parent, legal guardian, or authorized pickup has walked in the building to pick them up.
Reasons: This limits the possibility of the children running into traffic, danger, or dangerous people.
If an Adult, other than the Parent, Legal Guardian, or Authorized Pickup is sent to pick up the child, please inform the school in advance. The Adult will also need a valid ID, which will be photocopied & returned to them.
Note: If you have not filled out the Authorized Pickup Form ( or Authorized Pickup Portion of the Intake Form ), Please do so at your next visit.
Use a Buddy System ( 2 or more, preferably Adults ) as you walk to your vehicle or transportation ( Bus, Train, Uber, etc.. ).
As a reminder, on campus, Everyone is responsible for child & personal safety.
The Instructors, regardless of Art or Discipline, have a tremendous task & heightened awareness to look after every child & person on campus. Please help and assist in that mission. 🙏
Thank Everyone & Be Safe !
Respectfully,
Beverly Pagoda Mgmt
