Parent Pick-Up
Due to a Bus Driver shortage, there have been bus cancellations that have resulted in more students that are parent pick-up. I want to thank you for your patience as the staff works hard to get everyone through safely. We ask that you be kind and respectful to other drivers, as well as staff as we go through this process.
Change in Transportation:
If you are needing to change your scholars transportation for dismissal, please notify the office prior to 2:30pm. This will allow us to make sure that the scholar gets to the correct location prior to dismissal procedures beginning.
Students dismissing early:
If you are picking your child up prior to 2:45pm, please call the office in advance and pick your child in the office in order to sign them out. If you are picking your scholar up 3:00pm or after, you will need to pick up your scholar at parent pick-up.
Thank you for your assistance with making sure that scholars are where they need to be, to dismiss in a safe and efficient manner.
