Dismissal
Dismissal
Kindergarten dismissal is at 2:55 p.m. Please be at the flagpole at 2:50. Dismissal for car riders is as follows:
Dismissal Location
Children will wait on the concrete, with their class, on a designated painted stripe inside the black lines, near the bike racks on the east side of the building. Please park and walk up to the dismissal area and wait outside the black lines (box). For safety reasons, please wait for a teacher to dismiss your child to you (please DO NOT take your child until a teacher has dismissed them.) You must also have your gold car rider sign or driver’s license each day.
