 All right, good morning Richland and Kellogg second grade students. My name is Mr. Woodrow and I'm the principal at Thomas M. Ryan Intermediate. My name is Miss Holmes and I'm the assistant principal here at Ryan Intermediate. And we're here this morning just to give you a quick short video. We apologize we weren't able to do our normal pass me up days that we look forward to doing every year. So we thought we would do a short video that you could view with your classroom teacher or your parents at home to maybe answer some questions that you might have about the building and again we hope that we'll be able to get folks in the building in the fall for a curriculum night but we wanted to give you an opportunity to see the building and show you where Ryan Intermediate is all about. So as we start here we're right in the beginning of our main entrance. Here as you can see students are walking in this morning and this is where students will walk in for drop-off in the morning. So if your parents are dropping you off they'll come up on the sidewalk they'll drop you off and you enter into the main entrance right here right by the flagpole. As we move down to off to our my right you'll see that our bus loop is down here to the right and if you ride the bus you will be being dropped off here in the bus loop and you'll either come up to this door you can see Mr. David where Mr. David is at and if you are a fifth grade student you'll be walking in these double doors sometimes other students will walk in these doors and fourth and third grade will take you down here to where you will enter into the building if you are dropped off by the bus in the morning. You can see where Mrs. Butterfield is walking in that's where our third grade entrance will be and we have a path behind the school where the fourth grade students will enter into the building as well. That's our process this year if it changes we'll make sure that we notify the parents and students prior to the school year. Alright so we've made it into our new third grade vestibule which was built last year and we're going to walk you through this is where you would come in through these double doors and right into your classroom so follow Mrs. Holmes and I and we'll show you around. So as we walk into the vestibule you're going to have some restaurants here to your left we have some common areas we see Mrs. Perry in the background waiting getting ready for the day today and we'll be having all this new carpet all the way through the building by the time you get here next school year so follow us we're walking down there's classrooms on your right and left there's a teacher workroom space and again we have restaurants here to the left we have some common areas where kids can work out in the hallway and we often use this space to do group work and we'll keep following you down here we have an emergency exit off to our left all of you will have an opportunity to have a locker assigned to you next year so you can see that some of our kids have their names on their lockers and we also have our mission statements of tying with our leader me program so look we'll look forward to doing that with you guys next fall as we keep coming down we have classrooms on either side you'll be assigned to one of these classrooms in this hall and we're excited we have new furniture and new desks and new chairs in each of our rooms so you can look forward to having some of those things in your classroom as you arrive at Ryan next year so the last thing we'll want to show you at the end of this hall is our gang bathrooms so this is where our big bathroom sets are and you need to use the restroom this is where you'll come and we have water bottle filling stations and this is the boys and girls restrooms here at the end of the hall so as we get here to the end you cut down to the left and that will take us down to the main office in our gym and our main area of our building coming in the main door of the building you'll come to our office where we have mrs. Bell and mrs. Mosey who will be the friendly faces to greet you as we continue on the main hub you'll first come to our gymnasium where mr. Bell will be ready to have fun PD classes with you right next to the gymnasium across the hall is our library and this is an exciting piece because last year we've got new library furniture made it more fun and flexible mrs. Vanderweel runs our library she's in the back if you can see you're waving and then opposite the library is our special swing and down the hall you'll have music and Spanish and then art is right in this connecting area too if we progress down the transition hallway you can see at the very end when we get there there is a painted Michigan map and that map will kind of help guide you as to the next couple steps of the building when you get to the map if you take a left as we're going to you'll head down to the cafeteria so this will be where you'll eat each day okay so we've made it down our transitional hallway to our cafeteria area so every day you will third graders will come down here and eat and lunch is attached to recess so you either go to lunch and then recess or you'll go to recess and then come to lunch so as we enter into the cafeteria we'll show you what that looks like currently this year we have kids that are have assigned seats per classroom and that may change based on what we're capable of doing next year in the fall but you can see miss Taylor in the background she is one of our kitchen leaders so she will be with us hopefully in the fall and this is where we will come to eat lunch every day and again you can see the plexiglass that's up for safety right now we don't know if that'll continue in the fall we're back at the Michigan map and if you turn right from the Michigan map you'll head toward our math lab reading lab and our new stem wing so the first place to come to is our math lab next progressing down will be two reading lab rooms and the stem classroom so on your left by mr. Woodrow is the stem classroom we can take a peek in there we're really excited to offer stem classes next year and then on your right are the two reading lab classrooms okay so we've made it out to the backside of our building and we just wanted to give you a little idea of how students will get out to the playground so towards the end of the path down here by the black truck there are double doors that will come right outside and we will walk down this path all but all the way down around the end of the down here at the corner and then we'll end up at the playground we when we're done with recess we will come back down this path and we'll enter into the double doors over here right by where the awning is and that's where we will come and go for recess in third grade as we round the corner you can see the Ryan playground which we're really excited about last year we were able to get lots of new equipment for our playground this year the kids have loved the new items that they get to play on so lots of fun to be had out here at recess all right Richland and Kellogg second graders almost Ryan third graders this concludes our quick presentation of Ryan intermediate we hope this was helpful in answering some questions and just giving you a little bit of a visual about our school we're super excited about having you in the fall attend with us we're sorry we're able to do our pass me up days like we anticipated but again I hope this video was helpful for you and we are super excited about having you in the fall as our new third grade group and again just what mr. Woodrow said we can't wait to see in the fall have a fun set and safe summer and we'll see you in August
