ALICE Drill at Primary
At the Primary level, we are practicing this drill on January 6, when we have teachers only on campus. We felt it is important that the adults at our level work through different scenarios without students involved. We are aware of the developmental level of our students and the importance of staying age appropriate with our drills.
We will continue to conduct our regular monthly fire drills, our bad weather drills, and our lock down drills.

Transportation Department
Nurse Department
Just a few quick reminders from our campus nurses:
1. PreK and Kinder students should have a change of clothes in backpacks for emergencies.
2. Medication must be transported by a parent. Please do not send medication (including over the counter items) with your child.
Cold and Flu season is upon us. Washing hands and sneezing/coughing into elbows is one of the best methods of prevention.

Transportation Changes/Checking Your Child Out Early
2:30 pm
If you must change how your child regularly goes home, please call the front office at (830) 779-6600 by 2:30 pm in order for the change to be made. Do not email transportation changes to the teacher as messages may not be seen.
2:45 pm
We understand that there are medical, personal, and even special events that cause your child to be checked out early from school. However, routinely checking out your child from school should be avoided. In order for students to be dismissed safely, no early check-outs will be made after 2:45 pm.
