Car Rider Pick-up
Thanks to the support of all our families and hard work of school personnel, we have been able to reduce the time in line for car riders. We need your help to continue making this process the best possible experience for everybody involved.
- Merge one and one from both directions of Boone Loop Rd. to ensure both lines continue moving.
- Make sure your car tag is hanging from your rear view mirror when you enter the school driveways.
- Line up in the correct line from the beginning to ensure you child will be in line in the correct place to board the car.
- Do not leave the car when picking up you child. This in unsafe for you and for the other vehicles moving through the driveways.
We appreciate your support and cooperation to help make this process fast. Your child is eager to join you at the end of the day.

Attendance Reminders
Things to remember about attendance procedures at our school:
1) School starts at 8:15 a.m.—students who are not in class at this time are considered tardy. Students who are 30 or more minutes tardy, will be considered as a “POD30”, which is a part-of-day attendance violation.
2) The official attendance time to determine if a student is absent or present for the day is 10:00 a.m., students must be on campus at this time.
3) Dismissal is at 3:40 p.m.—students may not be released after 2:30 p.m. because dismissal procedures will have already started.
4) Students who are picked up before dismissal time will be considered as an “early leave”, which is a part-of-day attendance violation.
5) Excuse notes for absences must be returned no later than 3 days after returning to school.
6) Only 10 parent excuse notes will be allowed per year, without extenuating circumstances.
7) Only 10 doctor/clinic/nurse excuse notes will be allowed per year, without a medical need documented by your doctor and verified by the school nurse.
