PRESCHOOL 4Y and 3Y Handbook and Drop Off and Pick Up Information
Here is the link to our preschool handbook. https://resources.finalsite.net/images/v1786569868/laschoolsnet/m93albfq66nsuxk659hz/LAPSPreKParentHandbook2026-2027.pdf
Please note that drop off procedures for PREK are the same as last year. Parents are expected to bring the student to the door between 8:00 and 8:10 for start of school. If PREK4 students are here before school with their siblings and you playing, we ask for safety reasons that the PREK4 students play on the preschool playground rather than the bigger play structures on the lower playground. Thank you!

Mountain Family Handbook
This resource is a comprehensive guide to an overview of our school and procedures.
Please review this with your child so he or she can be successful at Mountain. A few common reminders are: appropriate use of technology, walking on campus rather than running and riding scooters and bikes as well as leaving personal toys and balls at home and not bringing them to school. Our expectations are posted throughout are school and reviewed with the students often in the first weeks of school. If you reinforce these at home this makes a world of difference:)
