Arrival & Dismissal Reminders
Discontinuing the daily use of the AUXS screening application has greatly impacted our arrival for students and staff. We want to review the following with our families regarding arrival.
Doors open for students at 8:40 AM. Staff supervision will not begin until 8:40AM.
Walkers can not enter the building before 8:40.
A couple of reminders regarding dismissal.
- If you are picking up your child early from school, please send in a note or email the office prior to pick up.
- An adult must be at the bus stop to receive children.
- Students that have not been picked up by 3:50 PM will be placed in EDC.
- If your child is brought back to the school by the bus, they will be cared for in EDC, not in the main office.
Volunteers Needed!
Ashbrook has contacted our PTA to let them know we are looking for fully vaccinated volunteers to help out with our lunch and recess periods. Interested parties can continue to contact the main office. A big thank you to those volunteers who have already started helping in the lunchroom!
