Parent Reminders
- Car Tags- Please keep your car tag hanging and visible until your child is in the car.
- Please keep in mind, that we will not release students past 2:30 PM.
- Updated Contacts- Parents, please review your child's emergency contacts in the parent portal. If someone is not on the list, we cannot release students, even with their license provided. Please update all contact information!
- If a student is dropped off at 7:50 AM or later, you will need to sign in at the front office.
- For any changes in after-school transportation, please contact the office by 2:00 PM so that we have time to relay the message to the student and teacher.
- Label EVERYTHING! At the end of each 9-week period, all unclaimed items (jackets, clothing, shoes, etc.) will be donated. Please write your child's name on their clothing and items so that it can be identified more easily.
- Connect with your child's teacher by signing up for their teacher communication (Remind, Dojo, etc.)
