Attention Elementary Families:
The end of day elementary pick up process has been changed for the upcoming school year. Attached is a map of how the process will work. Please note the direction flow of traffic, this will make the car line run more efficient, as well as save you time. Staff will meet you at your car with walkie-talkies to call for your child. We will then bring your child out to the marked spot from the cafeteria. No need to get out of your car. Yellow car tags will be handed out at Open House on Thursday evening. These will need to be prominently displayed as you pick up your children. Official release is 3:25.
Drop off is at the same location. Doors open at 7:30 with the school day beginning at 7:50.
Miles for Smiles will be here August 26th- September 3rd. Consents that were turned in last school year are up to date. If you did not turn in a consent last school year, a new one will be required. If you did turn in a consent and no longer wish to use this service you will need to contact Miles for Smiles.
Please read this Daily Parent Checklist from the CDC. This is also located on our school website with our Parent Re-Entry plan.
