Today's lockdown drill went off without incident. We had visitors from the CISD CLASS (Carroll Leadership Academy) here and participated with our students and staff. Everyone did an awesome job! Thank you SLPD and our SROs for helping us with our practices.

As we plan for the year ahead, the 2026–27 school year calendar info is now available on the CISD website with all of the key dates families need to know. You can find important information including the first and last day of school, holidays and breaks, grading periods, early release and teacher work days, and more on the District Calendar page at southlakecarroll.edu under “School Information > Calendar."

Thank you so much for doing your best to get your students to school on time each day. We know traffic has been challenging lately, and we truly appreciate your continued effort.

Depending on traffic, weather and bus availability, our staff will come in at approximately 7:35-7:40 so they can be ready to welcome and support students by 7:40. Our doors will remain open until 7:40 and the drop off lane will be blocked at that time. Please park and walk your child into the office. Please DO NOT drop your child off if the door has been closed. This helps us ensure the safety of every student. To help the morning run smoothly, if no adult is available, pull all the way up to the # 1 spot and have your child exit the vehicle on their own. This small step really speeds up the line and keeps things moving. Thank you again for your partnership and for helping us start each day safely and on time. We truly appreciate you! Together, we can make this happen! Dragon Love, SW

Please DO NOT drop your children off before 7:20. At 7:20 the cafe doors will open. Please have your children stay in your car until we are able to supervise. Also, if you are here after 7:40, we ask that you walk your child in and sign them in for the day. We really appreciate your cooperation with this safety procedure.

1. The CES school zone times are from 7:10 -7:50 am & 2:50 – 3:30 pm

During this time the posted speed limit is 20 mph and cell phone use is posted on multiple signs to be prohibited. Please abide by this as citations can and will be issued for violations.

2. When lining up for dismissal Pre K and last names A-J proceed in the right lane to the back parking lot to line up. Last names K-Z will line up serpentine through the front / north parking lot. Please DO NOT leave large spaces between cars, we are stacking as many cars as possible for efficient pick up in the carpool lines and to eliminate traffic on Continental.

3. There is NO PARKING ever in the fire lanes, especially during large school events!
