School Information

Daily Schedule

  • School doors open at 7:15 a.m. daily
  • Students are counted as tardy at 7:55 a.m.
  • When students are tardy they miss important morning announcements and class community-building activities that occur before instruction begins.
  • If your child arrives after 8:05 a.m., they must be brought inside by whoever drops them off.
  • Dismissal is at 3:20 pm


Please wear dismissal tags every day for the first two weeks of school. We will provide them on the first day of school for those who do not have one.



If your child is a car rider:

  • Please remain in your cars during drop-off and dismissal.
  • Keep the orange tag with your child's number hanging from the review mirror when you are in the line.
  • If you do not have an orange tag with your child's number, you must come inside and present a valid ID.
  • Please be patient the first few days as we try to get our system to be as efficient as possible while still ensuring students' safety


If your child is a walker:

  • You may meet them by the doors near the bus ramp.
  • If your student is in PreK or Kinder, the person picking them up must have a placard and meet at the door by the buses near the marquee. A staff member will release the student upon seeing the appropriate placard. If you do not have a placard, you will be asked to come to the front office to check your valid ID.


If your child attends daycare:

  • They are dismissed at 3:20 to the receiving daycares.
  • Daycares come past the buses to the back circle drive.
  • All daycare students should be picked up by 3:40. If a daycare arrives after 3:40, the students must be picked up in the front office.


If your child is a bus rider:

  • If they are a kindergartener with a red tag, please make sure you are at the bus stop with the appropriate placard to pick up your child. There are new placards for the 23-24 school year. If someone is not there with the placard, the student will be returned to Chambers to be picked up in the front office with a valid photo ID.
  • Kindergarteners with a green tag may be released from the bus without an adult present.
  • All students will have a smart tag to check in and off the bus.


Placards and tags can be acquired at Meet the Teacher night.
