Day of Service is Next Friday 11/17!
Please remember that all students will be off campus providing service to the community from approximately 9:00am until 2:00pm. If you have any appointments scheduled for that day, you may want to reschedule as you will not be able to pick them up during that time period.
Pick up for appointments will only be open from 2:00pm until 3:40pm when our dismissal closes. Please make note of the following:
- We can not guarantee that all students will be back on campus by 2:00pm.
- Students will still be participating in community service activities once they are back on campus.
- In year's past, there have been waits of 30-45 minutes to pick up your student. Please plan accordingly.
- The only way to check you child out during this time will be with the QR code posted in the Front Office.
- If you are not listed as a student's guardian or emergency contact, we can not release the student to you. Emergency contacts can be updated in Skyward Family Access prior to 11/17/23.
