It's that time of year for transfer students to fill out the district transfer applications for next school year (2022-2023), if you do not live in the Maple Grove or CGCSC District boundaries.

INTRA-DISTRICT TRANSFER STUDENTS: Students whose home address is outside of the Maple Grove boundaries, but you live in the CG District. The dates to fill out your 2022-2023 application are April 10, 6:00PM THROUGH April 15, 11:59 PM. Mark this on your calendar. This is the time-frame you have to fill out the application. This is first-come, first-serve. No late applications are accepted.

INTER-DISTRICT TRANSFER STUDENTS: Students whose home address is outside of the CGCSC district boundaries. The dates to fill out your 2022-2023 application are April 24, 6:00PM THROUGH May 9, 11:59 PM. Mark this on your calendar. This is first-come, first-serve. No late applications are accepted.

Transfer students are not approved to use CG Transportation. It will be your responsibility to get your child to and from school, on time, each day.

To find this application, visit the centergrove.k12.in.us webpage and click on the red banner across the top of the page, during those specified timeframes.

Kindergarten Registration is now open for next school year. Incoming Kindergarten students must be 5 by August 1, 2022 - no exceptions. For more information and to register, click HERE. Registration is still open for the current school year, as we have new students enrolling all year long, so please be sure to choose 2022-23 on your application so you won't have to do it again.

• Students MUST enter and exit your vehicle on the curbside. The driver of the car should not get out of the car and walk the student to the driver's side. We do ask that you move sibling's car seats to the opposite side, if they cannot go under or over them.
• School ends at 3:45 PM. Carline is very efficient, and we are typically done by 3:55 PM. Please be sure you are at the school to pick-up your student.
• We unload the entire curb (rain, snow, or sunshine)! If you are at the back of the line, we ask that you still have your student exit your vehicle. They can use Door 1 or 2, depending on which is the closest entrance.

Please remember to have your student bring a water bottle (with their name on it) and a snack to school every day. If you would like to make a snack donation to your child's classroom, that would be great. Make sure it is a healthy snack. We have a limited supply of snacks in the office for those in need. We appreciate your help.

PLEASE NOTE: If you want to pick up your student during the day. You MUST put that in Pick Up Patrol under "Early Release". Even if you will be bringing them back to school from an appointment, you must enter the information into Pick Up Patrol.

If they are leaving for an appointment, make sure you are NOT putting that into "Plan Changes".

Reminder: There are cutoff times for making changes in PUP!! We also have a cutoff for picking your children up from the office for appointments at the end of the day. Your child needs to be picked up prior to 330pm, not after 330pm. Thank you for understanding!

All absences should be entered into our Pick Up Patrol. Open PUP. Click on your child's name, then click on the drop down menu under "Plan". Choose "Absent". Under "more info." add reason for absence. Then click "submit". If you have more than one child absent, you will do the same thing for the next one. If you have any questions, please call our office at 317-881-0561. Below there is a link to tutorial videos for Pick Up Patrol.

• Exterior doors remain locked throughout the school day. Please ring the doorbell if you need assistance.
• The vestibule (entryway) is secured as well, and visitors will not be permitted in the building beyond the vestibule. If you are dropping off a child or picking up a child from the clinic or for an appointment, you will check in with Mrs. Schneider and your child will meet you in the vestibule.
• If you need to drop off/pick up items from school, there is a pass-through door located next to Mrs. Schneider.
• Be sure to have your ID on you at all times when entering the building. We will still be checking ID's before any student can be checked out of the building.
