Drop-off and Pick-up

  • CAR RIDERS
    If you choose to transport your child (ren) to school by car, please use the following route: Enter the north parking lot at the first driveway, follow the lot around to the north entrance.  Drop off and/or pick up your child at the north side entrance only.  Before school drop off is at the gate to the playground.  Drivers should exit through the south parking lot and south driveway.  Do not stop in the front of the school or park in front where the curb is painted yellow.  This area is for buses only.  Please remember that both driveways are one-way only.
  • BICYCLE RIDING
    Students who ride bicycles to and from school are required to use crosswalks and walk their bicycles while on school grounds.  Bike racks are located at the north entrance to the building.  Locks are recommended.
  • AFTER SCHOOL PICKUP
    If you are picking your child up after school, please use the north parking lot.  Parents are asked to park along the sidewalk and wait in your car for your child.  The children will be allowed to go to their car by using the sidewalk. We ask that you not park in the lot and expect your child to come to the car there.  We will not allow students to go out to the parking lot between the parked cars at the curb.  This is, of course, a safety factor for your child.  If you wish to come into the building to meet your child, please park in the lot rather than along the curb.  You will be responsible for walking your child to your car in the parking lot. Please walk between the orange cones to and from the north parking lot.  If meeting your child in the school building, please wait for him/her in the north entrance hallway.  The students will come to you there. Going down to the classroom makes it necessary for you to sign in at the office first.  For safety reasons we ask that you not go to their classroom to pick them up.  The hallways can get very congested, making it difficult for teachers to keep track of their students at this exciting and somewhat hectic time of day.

 

Attendance

  • If your child will be absent from school please call the school (261-0235) by 9:00 AM.  If we do not receive a call, the parent will be called.
  • If a student has an appointment during the day, a note from the parent is appreciated.
  • Tardiness will be recorded and reported.  Any student who arrives after 8:40 AM is tardy and must report to the office before going to their classroom.
