Student Planners: Every student has received a planner from their advisory teacher. We have extra planners available for purchase at $5.00 each, in case they lose theirs during the year. If your student needs a replacement, they can buy one from Holly King in the front office.
Reminders:
Campus Hours: 8:15 AM - 4:15 PM
Please note that visitors will not be allowed on campus before 8:15 AM. If you require assistance before this time, please schedule an appointment in advance.
Carpool Arrival: Students should not be dropped off before 8:15 AM, as there will be no supervision available prior to this time.
Early Pickup: Students cannot be checked out after 3:15 PM.
Carpool Dismissal: Thank you for your continued support in making the process smoother. If your student has not yet come outside, you are welcome to park in the parking lot and wait. Please avoid parking in the red or blue lanes, as this disrupts the traffic flow.
Thank you for your cooperation!
