Plain Elementary is excited to welcome all Grandparents to Grandparent's Day Lunch!
Grandparents are invited to come and eat lunch with their grandchildren on Monday September 9th, 2024. Please be sure that you complete the Google Form to RSVP as all visitors will need to be checked in through our Raptor system.
School Dismissal Manager is how campus staff knows how your child should go home each day. You must create an account and designate your child's default dismissal method at the beginning of every school year. You will also use SDM to communicate transportation changes, called exceptions in their system. Here is a parent guide for more info!
For the 24-25 school year, all bus riders need to register for bus transportation. Please follow this link to register your child for bus transportation!
Thank you for your patience as we work to reflect and improve our car rider dismissal. To help our staff, please be sure you have the SDM app downloaded so you can give our staff the daily code, which will signal your child's teacher to let them know you are here to pick up. Not all students recognize their car in the line, so please be sure you have a sign in the front window with your child's name and grade level. This allows our staff to tell your child to come to their car. We can provide you with a sign or you can create your own.
