In case of cold weather or rain, students should enter the building and go to their designated area inside. The first bell to begin the day starts at 9:05 a.m. and students arriving after 9:05 a.m. will be marked tardy. Dismissal is at 3:55 p.m. IMPORTANT: Wednesday early dismissal is 3:10 p.m.

    Students in grades K-2 will be dropped off and picked up in the south parking lot. Any older students with a sibling in grades K-2 will also get dropped off and picked up in the south parking lot. Students in grades 3-6 will be dropped off and picked up using the north parking lot. The drop off will be on the west side of the building, by the cafeteria. The pick up will be on the north side of the building, near the gym entrance.

    Eating Lunch with Students

    Families are invited to eat lunch with their child throughout the school year. Bring a sack lunch or pay for your lunch as you go through the lunch line using your child’s nutrition account or in cash with exact change or small bills. Please call the school office by 9:15 a.m. of the morning you will be joining us. We may limit the number of families who may eat lunch on a particular day based on space and/or meal availability.

    For a special occasion, such as a child’s birthday, we invite you to bring lunch from a restaurant for you and/or your child. However, we will find a quiet area in the building or on school grounds separate from the lunchroom for you to eat. Families are welcome to take their child out for lunch during their specific lunch/recess time.
