Ordering Flowers- Local School Deliveries
Thursday, August 30th, 2007School has started and the number of orders being delivered to Felicity Franklin local school district have started rolling in. There are a number of policies that the school enforces that we must follow. Here are the ways we have altered our delivery methods to the school district.
All of the Felicity Franklin Local School District’s buildings are now equipped with locks and buzzers. Guests must ring a bell and be “buzzed in” to gain entrance to the school. Since it requires someone to verify your identity and then “buzz” you in, we no longer make multiple delivery trips to school to cut down on the number of times an employee must take time to buzz us in. Last year we were making four or five trips to school a day and before the buzzer system this was no problem. However, we are making two trips per day. One for employee deliveries at 11 am and then one for student deliveries at 1:00.
All deliveries going to students are made near the end of the school day. Students are not permitted to carry flowers or other gifts with them as it can be a distraction. During the last period of the day, students are called to the office to pick up their deliveries. We would rather your purchase sit in our cooler until delivery time to ensure that they are kept as fresh as possible.
All deliveries are made to the office of the building that the student is attending classes. We are not permitted to deliver flowers or gifts directly to the student. Once we have delivered your order to the school we have no way of knowing what time the student will receive their flowers. It is at the secretaries discretion as to what time they will call the student to the office for pick up.
Of course we will make exceptions if a student is leaving school early. If you call with an order for a teacher or other employee after our delivery time we will take the delivery at our second delivery time.
Since we are located less than five blocks from the school we have a wonderful relationship with the district. If you have any questions about our policies please feel free to call us!
