Reminders
Please be mindful of our arrival and dismissal times. Punctuality is very important as we are trying to maintain a consistent schedule for our students.
Arrival time 8:20am-8:50am.
Dismissal time 3:20pm.
Please note Car rider will close off at 8:47am for teachers to get back to class on time.
At 8:47 you will need to bring your child to the front office so they can get to class by 8:50am.
After 8:50am your child is considered tardy.
Any changes to your child's transportation needs to be communicated with your child's teacher via email or classdojo, so we can have something in writing. If the changes are for the same day please let the teacher know before 2pm.
If you need to check out your child/children please be here by 2:30pm. The buses start to line up at 2:45pm, if you arrive after that time we will have to ask you to wait until the buses leave before we can let you check your child out.
Please be sure to label your child's lunch boxes and water bottles, this will help incase they happen to misplace it on the bus or at school.

Attendance
If your child must miss school, please send an excuse note with the date, reason for absence and your signature. In the state of Georgia, a student is considered truant if they have 10 unexcused absences.
