Important Reminders
Dismissal Time: Please remember that we do not allow students to dismiss after 3:30 PM in the bus loop. If you must pick up your student after 3:30 PM, please park your car in the carline lot and walk to the front of the building.
Carline: Please do not allow your child to exit your vehicle until you see an adult staff member outside. It is very important that we are protecting all of our students by ensuring that an adult is available to help get them into the building safely! Thank you!
Front Bus Loop: The front bus loop is off limits to cars between the hours of 8:40-9:30 AM AND 3:30-4:30 PM. If you need to enter the building during this time, please use the carline lot and park your vehicle and walk over OR park at Prince of Peace and walk over from there.
Extra Set of Clothes: With the weather changing, it is important that your student has an extra set of clothes available in their locker in case they need to change after recess. This will help us avoid calling you for additional clothes in the event that your student needs to change. Thank you!
Appropriate Clothing for Outdoor Recess: In addition to sending a set of extra clothes, please make sure that your child is dressed appropriately for outdoor recess. Students go outside every day as long as it is not raining.
