FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL ARRIVAL INFORMATION

PK-1

PK, Kindergarten, and 1st Grade Parents can walk their children to their classrooms on the first day of school.

Parents will be given a Visitor’s Badge and will enter and exit through exterior door #3.
Beginning Thursday, August 14th, all students are expected to walk to their classrooms from either the cafeteria or the gym with their teachers, or from the school's front entrance.
Multiple staff members will be present throughout the campus to support our learners as they make their way to their classrooms.

PRE-K, KINDERGARTEN, AND FIRST GRADE: Have your badge pre-printed for the first day of school on August 12th during Meet the Teacher. Bring your ID and visit the front office to have it scanned. Having a pre-printed badge will ease the traffic in the front office and ensure you and your child(ren) can get to the classroom in a timely way.

2-5

All 2nd-5th grade parents are welcome to escort their children to the front of the building, but then kiss and hug them so they are off to their classroom ready for learning. This procedure encourages students’ self-esteem and independence by getting the school day started on their own. Teachers appreciate the uninterrupted instructional time by getting to work as soon as they enter the classroom as a whole group. Thank you for supporting the safety and security of our school community.
