Reminder: New School Start Time – 7:50 a.m.
Our new school start time went into effect last week, and we noticed an increase in students arriving late, even after 7:55 am..
Beginning this week, students arriving after 7:50 a.m. will be marked tardy.
Our doors open at 7:15 a.m., and traffic is typically very light until around 7:40 a.m. We encourage families to take advantage of this earlier arrival window to avoid the morning rush.
Please make every effort to have your child in the building and ready to learn by 7:50 a.m.
Thank you for your partnership in helping our Cubs start each day successfully!

Storybook Parade - October 23rd
Costume Reminder: Come Prepared for Parade Day!
If your child does not wear their costume to school, please send it with them. Due to our morning routines, we are unable to accept or deliver costumes after arrival and ensure they reach students before the parade begins.
Thank you for helping us make this a fun and smooth event for everyone!
Parade Parking & Visitor Reminders
Families attending the parade should park in the back lot and walk to the designated parent viewing area. Please remain in the viewing area during the parade. You are welcome to watch and take pictures of your student!
For student safety, vehicles parked in the front parking lot must remain parked until the parade has ended and all students have safely returned inside. If you need to leave early, please park in the faculty parking lot near the bus drive.
Since this is still an instructional school day, we ask that families avoid checking students out early. Thank you for helping us keep our Cubs safe and the day running smoothly!
