NEW ATTENDENCE PROCEDURES!
Starting immediately, it is now required that children have a parent sign them in when they arrive tardy or return to school after being signed out. Additionally, students will not be able to be signed out after 2:15 pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and after 1:15 pm on Wednesdays. These changes are in place to prevent disruptions during dismissal time and allow our front office staff to focus on safely coordinating students' transportation at the end of the day. Any end-of-the-day sign-outs must now be completed before the specified times. Thank you for your cooperation with this!
