Safe Arrival & Dismissal Initiative
Official Launch January 17, 2023
Parents,
We are working to make our arrival and dismissal safer and more efficient. We will be implementing a tag system starting January 17, 2023. Every student and family will have a tag.
We are asking parents to complete a dismissal registration form. A hard copy is attached below and can be downloaded and printed. However, we will be sending paper copies home on January 9, 2023.
If you would like to make the process easier, you can click this link and complete the form online. All responses will go directly to one of the school administrators. On the form, you will list all students who leave together and adults who are approved to pick them up. Even if you complete the online version, you will need to sign the paper copy and return it to the school.
Virtual Parent Meeting for New Arrival and Dismissal Procedures
We will be hosting 3 virtual meetings in order to explain the new arrival and dismissal process. We encourage everyone to select one of the meetings to attend.
These meetings will be held in English and Spanish and can be accessed through the following links:

8th grade parent meeting for High School Applications
An email with the new date and time for the parent meeting will be sent this week to 8th grade parents.
The meeting will cover the new application process and system. Please note that Eastwood Academy no longer requires teacher recommendations and/or an essay. Additional information about their application will be shared at the meeting as well.
