Morning Drop-Off and Afternoon Dismissal Procedures

Morning Drop-Off begins at 8:00am. Students can pick up breakfast and go to class. The first bell is at 8:30am. Students arriving after 8:30am must be signed in at the Front Office and walked to class and will not receive breakfast.

Afternoon Dismissal begins promptly at 3:30pm.

PLEASE REMEMBER TO LEAVE DRIVEWAYS OPEN AND ACCESSIBLE AT ALL TIMES DURING DROP OFF AND PICK UP.

Parents of students Grades K-4 choosing to walk up to pick up your child, will be required to join the designated Walk-Up Line in front of the Annex Building so that TIMA staff can verify the pick up of your child through Pikmykid. Parents should announce in the Pikmykid App when they arrive and students will be dismissed individually.

We ask for everyone's patience in the car rider line the first week of school as everyone familiarizes themselves with our routines and procedures!

Pikmykid

TIMA will continue using the Pikmykid Dismissal App for the 24-25 school year! Parents will receive more information regarding verifying your child's dismissal info in next week's newsletter.

24-25 Free and Reduced Lunch Application

All TIMA students will be provided a Breakfast at no cost for the 2024-2025 school year. We urge all TIMA families to complete and submit a Free and Reduced Meal Application online

PowerSchool Parent Access

While we do not use SCCPSS’s website, we do utilize PowerSchool for state reporting purposes. All TIMA Families will now need a Parent Access account to view grades, attendance and report cards. TIMA will no longer issue school-wide paper report cards. This is also an opportunity to verify that your contact information is correct and up to date in an effort to insure that you are receiving all important communications coming from TIMA. As the bulk of our school communication is done via email, please be sure to update and include current email addresses.

Please note that any changes made to home addresses will have to be verified with proof of that address.

2024-2025 Parent Plug-Ins

Join us for some social time and to learn more about different aspects of TIMA. We will be covering different topics each month. Topics will be announced a week prior to the scheduled date.

Volunteer Opportunities

We love seeing volunteers on campus! Volunteers must first be cleared through the VISTA background check process. Please complete the simple registration and application process . The system also enables us to track volunteer hours. Tracking volunteers is important to TIMA's grant initiatives. Please help us by ensuring you are tracking your volunteer hours
