Parent and Child Connection
Dear Parents,
This is a friendly reminder that we cannot release students for early pick-up after 2:30 p.m. At this time, our teachers and students are concluding their instructional day. Additionally, we ask that you please remain in your cars during dismissal. For safety reasons, we are unable to release students to parents in the lobby area at this time.
Thank you for your understanding and support in ensuring a safe dismissal process for all.
HRE Arrival and Dismissal information
Dear Heritage Rose Families,
Please be reminded that you must park in the teacher parking lot and enter HRE through the front doors. No parking is allowed on Glendale Lakes Drive due to traffic flow and ticketing.
Arrival:
1. The earliest that students may be dropped off is 7:30 AM. School starts at 8:05 AM. Any student who arrives after 8:05 AM is considered tardy and must be signed in by their parent at the front office.
2. All Pre-K and 1st grade car riders (along with their siblings) will be dropped off and picked up at the PRE-K ENTRANCE. All other students will be dropped off and picked up at the FRONT ENTRANCE.

FRONT WALKERS will cross Glendale Lakes at the crosswalk in front of the school. The SIDE WALKERS will be students who live on the same side of Glendale Lakes as HRE. The SIDE WALKERS will walk out the side entrance of the school and will be walked to the edge of the school property heading toward Victorville Drive. Students who live on Mariquita Lane and on the left side of Toluca Drive from HRE must be FRONT WALKERS and cross Glendale Lakes at the cross walk in front of the school. Students that live on the right side of Glendale Lakes from the school will be SIDE WALKERS. No student who is a side walker should cross Glendale Lakes Drive while walking home.
PreK, Kinder 1st, and 2nd grade students without older siblings will not be allowed to walk home alone. Parents must meet them at the crosswalk to receive them. If parents are not present at the crosswalk, students will return with employees to the front office. All parents who are meeting their children who are walkers must meet their children at either the front crosswalk for FRONT WALKERS or at the corner stop sign for SIDE WALKERS. Please do not retrieve your child as they are walking in the line as they are transitioning to their destination.
Thank you!

Lunch Reminder
Parents,
You are able to have luch with your student on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays
HRE Breakfast and Lunch Update
All students will receive free breakfast and lunch at Heritage Rose Elementary for the 2024-2025 school year thanks to the USDA’s Community Eligibility Provision.
However, we are still asking that all families complete the Free and Reduced-Price Meal application, which opens on August 1. It can be completed at www.schoolcafe.com/fbisd. Families must complete an application for each school year.
Lunch Visitor Update
Lunch is a time for students to eat and to develop their communication skills and independence. We encourage students to engage in conversation with their peers at lunchtime and take responsibility for their needs. The cafeteria will be closed to lunch visitors the first three weeks of school. This allows our students and teachers time to establish cafeteria routines and expectations. Lunch visitors may begin visiting on Wednesday, September 4th. We appreciate your understanding of the visitor timeframe.
