Steck Weekly Update

October 10, 2025

Dear Steck Families,

Thank you so much for attending our fall conferences. We appreciate your partnership in supporting your child’s education. Remember there is NO SCHOOL on Monday, October 13th.

Please note that our Halloween Parade and Parties will take place on October 30th.The parade will begin at approximately 1:30 pm, more information will follow regarding the path of the parade and the location for spectators. We look forward to celebrating this fun event with our students! 

As always, please be extra careful during student drop-off and pick-up times to ensure everyone’s safety. We want to ensure that we are keeping a safe and efficient drop-off process for both pedestrians and bicyclists. To help with this, please follow these important parking and traffic guidelines around the school:

  • Follow all street and parking signs carefully. Only park in appropriate areas, never park in no parking zones.

  • Use the Kiss and Go lane appropriately by driving to the front of the lane to drop off your child. When space allows, please move forward to keep traffic flowing smoothly.

  • Do not stop or park in the crosswalks to ensure safe passage for all pedestrians and bicyclists.

  • Please keep handicapped parking spaces open and available for those who need them.

  • Do not pull into or park in the staff parking lot at any time.

Your cooperation helps us keep all students, families, and staff safe.

Don’t forget to sign up for the Caddysteck Auction, our fall fundraiser, happening on November 8th. Check for more information from PTSA to learn how you can participate and support our school.
