Student Self-Certification - Don't Forget!
First Day of School Photos
Arrival Procedures
There will be many supervisors around to help!
Students will line up with their class on paw prints six feet apart - class lines are marked.
Teachers will have signs with the teacher's name displayed.
Students will walk into school with their class and head directly to their classroom while maintaining social distancing.
Students who arrive late MUST go to the front office doors and line up on the designated spots to wait for entry.
Dismissal Procedures
Students will follow the "traffic" patterns on the floor to exit the building.
We will be piloting a staggered dismissal:
First, bussers will exit through the same doors they came in when they arrived.
Second, car-riders will go to the tent on blacktop and wait for their name to be called to the car line.
Third, walkers will exit.
