Dismissal:
Dismissal is a 3:00pm for students getting picked up. The bus usually arrives around 3:15. If your child will be riding the bus, please send a note indicating such. Additionally, if you child's dismissal plan changes for any reason, please send a note regarding the change.
Students are welcome to stay on play on the playground after school under your supervision. Please be mindful of student behavior and monitor your child(ren) as they play. We ask that students follow school rules when they are using the playground after school. In general, this means students treat each other and the equipment respectfully and safely. All equipment should be stored in the shed before you leaving the property. We appreciate your attention to these matters.
That is all for now!
