🍿🎥 The PSG is hosting an outdoor movie night on October 16th, at 7pm. Free popcorn, and a small canteen. Bring your chairs, and blankets and enjoy this fun school community event. Children must have an adult in attendance. Keep an eye out for more info!

The safety of our students is always our top priority. We ask all families to please follow our traffic procedures carefully.

Kiss & Go Loop

The Kiss & Go loop is a single-file loop. Parents and guardians must not pass other vehicles while using the loop.

Passing creates a serious safety risk for students who are entering or exiting vehicles and moving through the area.

Please remain in the single-file line and follow the direction of staff supervising the area.

Front Parking Lot During Dismissal

Vehicles are not permitted on school grounds during dismissal.

Our front parking lot and the area immediately outside the school must remain clear so that students can safely exit the building.

Thank you for your patience, cooperation, and attention to student safety. Working together helps us keep dismissal safe and orderly for everyone.

2:10 PM

A reminder to families about the importance of arriving at school on time each day. Our bell rings at 8:20 a.m., and instruction begins right away.

Arriving on time helps students start their day feeling prepared, settled, and ready to learn. When students arrive after the bell, they may miss important instruction, morning routines, and learning opportunities.

We appreciate families making every effort to have students at school and ready for the day by 8:20 a.m.

📱 Safe Arrival

Please remember to report your child's absence using Safe Arrival whenever your child will not be attending school.

Safe Arrival helps us ensure that we know where our students are each day and allows us to follow up promptly when an absence has not been reported.

For more information about Safe Arrival and how to report an absence, please visit the CBVRCE Safe Arrival information page:
