- Please drop off by 7:50. Our tardy bell rings at that time and we want our Patriots ready to learn with us.

- We cannot release kids after 2:45 due to dismissal procedures. If you have appointments, please make arrangements to pick up by this time.

- If you are dropping off before 7:15, please use the back loop. This area is staffed and students are directed to the cafe or gym. After 7:15, our front loop will be open.

We are pleased to announce that we are already hitting goals with our PTA enrollment! What a great way to start the year. Remember, it's not an obligation of time, it's a donation that can help our programming on our campus. Please use the link below to join as soon as possible.
