Hello East Ridge Community. We are excited to get the school year underway in our brand new 4th and 5th grade building. The Eyes on East Ridge newsletter will be your weekly update for all things relevant to our building. Check your emails weekly for each new edition where you will see updated school and district information, important dates, and a glimpse in to the many activities we are using to engage your students. The first day of school is Monday, August 26th!

School Begins at 8 am with doors opening at 7:30 with breakfast beginning at that time. Breakfast will be served in the cafeteria. Additionally, students will have the option of going right to their classrooms if they are not eating breakfast.

The school day ends at 3:10 pm Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and at 1:10 pm on Wednesdays.

Please indicate if your student will be a pick up/drop off or bus rider with your student's classroom teacher. You must notify the main office of any changes for a specific day. Drop Off students will enter through the Main Entrance doors on the East side of the building. Bus riders will enter through the Southeast Commons door upon arrival.

Pick-up students will be released out of our East Side doors. You may use the drop off lane or the parking lot to receive your students. Bus riders will be released out of the Southeast Commons door upon the arrival of their assigned bus. The bus lane is for buses and vans only. Please refrain from driving your vehicle in this lane.

Entrance into the drop off lane and parking lot is a one way entrance at the North side of the parking lot on Crossing Ridge Drive. The exit is on the South side of the lot onto Crossing Ridge. Please pay attention to, and respect all signage and traffic direction as we work to ensure the safest and most efficient pick up and drop off experience possible.

Refer to the below picture for traffic flow direction.
