Late Arrival/Early Dismissal
Late Check-in: 8:30 is when the tardy bell rings and the school day begins. Any student arriving to school after this time needs to be accompanied by the adult bringing them to school for check-in at the front office.
Early Dismissal: 3:00 is the end of our early dismissal. Students must be checked out prior to this time or remain at school until regular dismissal time. (Please be mindful that classes are operating until 3:15, so students should not be picked up prior to that time on a regular basis.)
Visitors
All visitors must check-in at the front office to obtain a visitors pass.
All items that are dropped off for your student needs to be brought to the front office to be delivered to their classroom by a staff member.
The Parent Resource Center is located in the Front Lobby.
