ahhh. apologies. so,we typically enroll 14-17 children in each preschool class. So, dividing the group up into the
staggered drop off cohorts, i anticiapte 4-5 cars per 7-8 minute block. and those cars are staying for 5 minutes
maximum.As a parent of two children who have attended Prairie Flower over the last couple of years, I can attest to the
efficiency with which pick up and drop off tends to run. In addition to staggering the drop off and pick up times,we also
typically have 3-6 families who have siblings enrolled,which cuts the number of vehicles as multiple vehicles are
dropping off more than one child each morning/afternoon.
Hope this helps,
Julia

Julia,
Do you have an estimate of parent vehicles and times? (Number of vehicles, duration they are parked there, etc?)
That's what I was looking for originally, I'm sorry I didn't make myself clear.
Thanks,
Justin

Justin,
The staff schedule is staggered such that there are only two staff onsite at any given time. There may be times when a
preschool staff is staying late a few minutes to clean something up after the afterschool staff have already arrived. For
the most part,the preschool staff come in between 7-7:45, one stays till 3:15 and the other swaps out with a different
teacher during the time between morning and afternoon sessions.The afterschool staff should be arriving in a
staggered manner as the preschool staff are leaving for the day.
Hope this helps,
Julia

Julia,
As soon as you have a general car count and duration send it along to me. We are finishing the report and have final
review tomorrow. It might help give some context for the us and the board.
Thanks,

Abi,
We are probably going to propose a condition if they choose to approve, of a October 15, 2022 date to complete
paving of the driveway and parking stalls. Also there will be a condition of completion of the required building code
items prior to occupancy. Does this all sound achievable?
Thanks,
Justin

Justin,
We have historically been licensed as a childcare "center." We have initiated discussions with the state to determine
how/if we will maintain licensure.
There will be 2 employees on sight at any given time. Save for the occasional staff meeting-- but the staffing
schedule is set up for mainly 2 staff at all times of programming.
The new SUP (revised and resubmitted on 6/27) has a table depicting the staggered drop off and pick up plan. Yes,
there are two different pick up timeframes in the afternoon --one for preschool, one for afterschool.

Hopefully this is the info you're looking for, please feel free to reach back out with other questions if they arise.
Best,
Julia (and Abi)

One additional question. How many employees will be on site at a time?
