Arrival-Student Drop Off 

Student drop-off takes place on the west and south side of the school building from 7:25-7:45 A.M. Staff members will supervise students out of their car. Please encourage your child to take off their own seat belt and open their own car door.  We want to encourage independence. For your child's safety, never allow your child out of the car without a staff member present. Breakfast will be served from 7:25-7:40 every morning. Students who enter the building at 7:25 will go to the gym to be supervised until 7:35.  At 7:35, all students will be escorted to their classroom.
