TRANSPORTATION CHANGES

Any changes from the usual pickup routine must be called to the front office by 2:30 that day in order for us to notify your child's teacher in a timely manner. Please do not contact your teacher directly in case they don't have afternoon conference, have a sub that day, or happen to miss the message. Contacting the front office helps us make sure everyone involved with after school duty knows of the change.


School is dismissed at 3:10 p.m. every day, please be on time to pick up your students. If you arrive after 3:20 p.m., you will need to come inside the office to sign them out.

Thank you for your help!
