Parent Pickup Protocol
To make parent pickup as smooth as possible, please send in a note, or call/email the school secretary, Mrs. Bilinski, prior to 2:00 PM that day.
Parents/guardians must communicate directly with the Main Office to ensure pick up goes as planned and we can be prepared for your arrival with your child ready. Dojo messages to teachers are not always relayed in time, so we do advise you communciate directy with the office through various modes of communication.
Dismissal pickup begins at 2:50 so please arrive timely.
Teachers will acccess Classdojo as a mode of daily communication. Email is still preferred method of communication regarding specific instances when the teacher needs to be contacted. Please allow 24 hours for teachers to fully respond, as response time will be delayed during instructional hours.
