Chalk the Walk

Starting TODAY at 3:00pm, students, parents and community members are welcome and encouraged to come chalk the walk in front of the building in preparation for tomorrow's opening of school for students. It looked fantastic last year and we're hoping for more of the same this year.

School times and procedures

School times

Doors open to students at 8:25am and are tardy at 8:40am.

Dismissal begins at 3:25pm for both car riders and parent drop off.


Procedures

Parent drop off and pick up is around the back of the building. Vehicles are to enter Potomack via the access road on Campus Drive. Please do not let the students out of your vehicle before seeing staff members at 8:25am.


The back gate closes at 8:40am. If dropping off a student after that time, please bring them to the front of the building and physically sign them in.

School Contact Methods

Without ClassDojo, the method of parent contact becomes more important than ever. Anything important that is time sensitive (bus changes, early pick up notification, etc.) will need to be communicated through a phone call with the office.


Any message that can wait 24 hours (question to the teacher not related to "day of" changes) should be sent to the teacher via Schoology.


Please screen the QR code in the photo attached for information about downloading and setting up Schoology.
