A few reminders to help your child have a GREAT DAY at school…
-
Have your child at school on time (drop-off begins at 7:30).

We want each child to have breakfast before they begin their day.
-
If you bring your child after 8:00, come into the office and sign them in.
-
Have your child ready to exit the vehicle when they arrive.
-
Pick-up begins at 2:20. If there is a change to your child’s pick-up/bus
-
routing please send a note to the teacher. WE DO NOT ACCEPT PHONE
-
CALLS and once we begin busload, WE WILL NOT take a child off the

If your child is picked up early from school, understand that he/she will be
