Student Checkout: Checkout ENDS at 2:15. Please plan appointments accordingly. Parents MUST have an ID to checkout students. Family members listed in Power School must have "school pickup" marked and have an ID to checkout a student.

Bus Safety: Please review approved water bottle information👇 listed below. Have your child place water bottles in their backpacks while on the bus.

Please make sure that your child has an appropriate "spill-proof" water bottle. Water bottles should fit inside your child's backpack. Unapproved water bottles can pose safety risks, especially on the schoolbus.

BUS SAFETY: Be sure your child's water bottle is an APPROVED, spill-proof water bottle placed inside his/her backpack.

• Carline Arrival: Carline starts at 7:20. Students should be prepared to exit vehicles quickly. Please do not exit cars in the carline or park and walk across the carline. Morning car rider line ends at 7:50. Students arriving after carline ends should enter through the front of the school. Students arriving at 7:55 or later are considered tardy.

• Carline Dismissal: Carline starts at 2:50 and ends at 3:15. For the safety of the students, please do not drive around cars to exit the carline. Please do not leave your vehicle. Parents must have a cartag or will have to report to the main office and show ID to pick up a car tag. This is for the safety of our students.
• Notes: If your child has a change in the way they are getting home, please send a note to the front office.

Important: If your child changes backpacks, please remove the breakfast tag from the old backpack and send it to school to be attached to the new backpack. Thanks for your help with this matter.

Parents, there have been several changes to the Jefferson County Student and Parent Handbook. Please click the link below to review the Handbook. We would like to call your attention to the attendance sections (pages 35-37). Also, please review pages 16-17 regarding tardies. You can monitor your child’s attendance through your PowerSchool log-in. Please contact Mrs. Lisa for assistance.
