Academic Day

The academic day begins promptly at 8:45 A.M. and ends at 2:50 P.M.

-Due to individual bus schedules, the actual time of arrival and departure may vary.
-Late arrivals/ early dismissals are highly discouraged due to the impact on your child’s access to the curriculum

Forgotten Items

  • If your child forgets an item at home (lunch, musical instrument, homework assignment, clothing, etc.), he or she should go to the Main Office to call home before the activity in which this item is needed. 
  • Parents/ guardians may park their vehicle in the playground lot and walk to the front entrance to drop-off the forgotten item at the main entrance vestibule. Please be sure to label with your child's name and teacher. 
  • Items dropped off for students will be brought to their classroom by a staff member. 
  • If a student leaves an item in school at the end of the school day, they will not be permitted to re-enter the building to pick-up the item until the next school day.
