George Syme Community School has several Saturday morning classes going on simultaneously, and for the safety of all the students, parents are asked not to remain in the hallways.

Commitment
We expect students of Escuela Pioneros de la Paz to attend every Saturday from 10:00 am sharp and be picked up by their parents/guardians at 12:30 pm.
The day’s activities follow a theme, introduced at the beginning of each class. Often they work in groups. Please ensure that your child arrives on time so he or she can participate and share the full benefit of this program.
If, for any reason, your child will not be present on any given Saturday, we ask that you please let us know via email at [email protected].
If your child is absent for more than 2 classes without letting us know, we reserve the right to drop your child’s name from the register and open the spot to a student on the waiting list.
