Each school day officially ends at 2:10 p.m.. If it is necessary to leave school before dismissal time, students must bring a note signed by a parent/guardian to the Attendance Desk in the Main Lobby or be signed out directly by a parent/guardian. In order to minimize disruptions in Period 9 and to provide a safe end-of-day and bussing dismissal we ask that, unless there is an emergency, students are not picked up for early dismissal after 1:55pm

Tardies: Once a student is tardy, the system keeps track of how many they have. Automatic emails are sent to inform parents.

Parent Drop-Off and Pick-Up: Use the main entrance circular student drop-off area.

The east driveway opposite Bloomer Road is reserved for use by school buses only. NO STUDENT DROP-OFFS OR PICK-UPS CAN OCCUR ON THE SIDE OF THE BUILDING DUE TO THE ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE OF BUSES and for overall student safety.

IN THE EVENT OF SCHOOL CANCELLATIONS OR EARLY RELEASES:

In the case of inclement weather, or other reasons, parents will be contacted by the School Messenger program. Please make sure we have your current contact information updated in ParentPortal.

ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE DIRECTIONS:

• For the welfare and safety of all students, it is requested that students do not arrive at school any earlier than 7:00 a.m.

• There is no supervision prior to this time.

• The first bell rings at 7:20 a.m. and the tardy bell rings at 7:28 a.m.

• Classroom instruction begins promptly at 7:28 a.m.
