Good afternoon Pittsboro Families!

The teachers have been working so hard to get their spaces ready to welcome you back! Every Sunday evening, I will email out Principal messages to the email and phone account listed in Powerschool for your child(ren). Please make sure the email address/phone that is listed in Powerschool is the email/phone that you check regularly.

PES Arrival/Dismissal
Arrival
Early arrival is from 7:00-7:40. These students must go straight to the cafeteria where staff are on duty to provide coverage. Normal carpool arrival begins at 7:40. Once arrival begins please pull all the way up to the designated areas to keep the traffic line flowing.
Dismissal
Students will not be dismissed from the office after 2:15 PM. If it is after 2:15 PM, you will be asked to utilize regular dismissal procedures. Dismissal begins at 2:55. Please display the school-issued carpool tag when picking up your child and make sure your child knows his/her number. Please wait in your car at designated signs until an adult assists your child into your vehicle. Once your child is inside your vehicle, and has buckled up by themselves, please pull off slowly.
Transportation Changes
All transportation changes must be emailed to the classroom teacher (prior to 8:00AM) or in writing to ensure teacher is aware of the changes. Last minute and/or emergency changes must be made to the main office before 2:00 PM. Please refrain from calling after 2:00 PM to make transportation changes as it will disrupt our dismissal procedures for the entire school. Any time a student’s transportation home changes from his/her regular routine, the teacher must receive a written note/email from the parent. Staff are directed to send students home regular way unless note is presented - a verbal request from the child to change transportation home will not be honored.
