- Please do not drop students off on Van Dyke in the morning. Our parent drop-off area is in the front of the High School at 160 Huyshope Ave. It is a much safer area to drop off.
INCLEMENT WEATHER & TRANSPORTATION
If our school has a delayed opening or an early dismissal due to inclement weather, you will receive a School Messenger. In addition, the information will be shared with several media outlets including WVIT, WTNH, WTIC, and WFSB as well as the CREC Transportation website (www.crec.org/transportation/earlyclosing.php). We encourage you to take a moment to review the transportation policies regarding inclement weather in advance.
Finally, we encourage you to ensure that your contact information is up to date at all times in order to ensure receipt of the communications sent. If you have any questions, please contact the Main Office at 860-724-0685.

Families applying for sibling preference must submit an on-time RSCO lottery application and select the school the currently enrolled student attends as their first choice to be considered. Again these seats are not guaranteed.
Families apply for sibling preference must:
- Submit an on-time RSCO lottery application that indicates a sibling attends their first choice selection
- Retain their RSCO Lottery Application ID for each applicant, and submit a sibling preference request form at www.crecschools.org/admissions
