Keeping Safety First—Every Student, Every Day
Student safety is our top priority during arrival and dismissal. To ensure a smooth and secure process, staff members are assigned to monitor key locations throughout our campus. Please take time to review the following procedures with your child and help reinforce their importance each day.
Important Reminder:
Any change to your child’s typical arrival or dismissal plan must be submitted in writing and shared with both the classroom teacher and the front office.By following these procedures, you help keep our students safe and the arrival/dismissal run smoothly for everyone. Thank you for your cooperation and continued support!
Arrival Information
Arrival Window: 7:25–7:40 AM
Supervision begins at 7:25 AM. Please do not drop students off before this time.
Parent Drop-Off & Pick-Up
Student's Mode of Transportation
Walkers

Walkers may not be picked up from the staff parking lot due to safety concerns
