Absences add up! Missing just 2 days a month means a child misses 10% of the school year.” – Attendance Counts
Attention Kindergarten Families
Dear Families,
To ensure a smooth, safe, and efficient dismissal for all students, we are updating our dismissal procedures beginning Monday, August 10, 2026.
🚗 Car Rider Pick-Up Policy
Car Tags Required: All vehicles in the pick-up line must display an official car rider tag.
Missing Tags: Drivers without a visible tag will be directed to a designated waiting area until general dismissal finishes so student identities can be verified safely.
Need an Extra Tag? Every student received one free tag at enrollment. Additional tags can be purchased in the main office for $5 (exact change only).
🏫 Office Hours During Dismissal
Temporary Closure: The main office will be closed daily from 2:55 PM to 3:10 PM. Dismissal is an "all hands-on deck" process, and our staff's full attention will be dedicated to supervising students at the bus and car loading areas.
Early Check-Outs: Please note that checking a student out before 3:00 PM counts as an unexcused tardy. As a reminder, 5 tardies equal 1 full day of absence.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we work together to keep our students safe!
