Early Release Day for all students (K-5) with dismissal at 12:15. There will be no PM Pre-K.

Dismissal Change Policy:

1. Limit changes for emergencies and unexpected medical appointments only.
2. Submit all changes by 12:00 PM using the provided form.
3. Form submission replaces the need to email the MRE attendance line.
4. Complete early pick-ups by 2:45 PM to avoid conflicts with bus and van arrival.
5. Extended Learning families: Notify the Extended Learning team directly about any changes in addition to completing the dismissal form.

*For MRE students attending a sibling's after-school games or activities at LBMS, should be dismissed as "walkers" unless a parent prefers the pick-up line. These students will be dismissed around the time all buses have been called and will exit through the front door of MRE to meet their parent.

We appreciate your understanding and support!

Take your students' schedules into account if adjusting dismissal plans for an appointment. For your reference, here are the lunch periods by grade level:

Kindergarten: 11:30 - 11:55
1st: 11:15 - 11:40

2nd: 11:45 - 12:10
