STUDENT  DROP OFF & Pick UP

Please note that the school does not open until 7:25. If you drop your child off before this, please know that they will not be under adult supervision.

We are continually streamlining our arrival and dismissal procedures and are grateful for your help and assistance in getting our learners to and from school safely!

With that, we wanted to send some updates and reminders regarding our arrival and dismissal procedures:

• Parents, please stay in your car during carline drop-off and pick-up. This keeps the line moving efficiently for all, and is safer for students and families.

Children will be responsible for buckling and unbuckling themselves.

• Students need to be in class by 7:40. With that in mind if you are not in the car line inside the gate at 7:40 you will be asked to turn around and walk your student in. Please bring your ID to Raptor into the office.

• After the initial traffic in the first week, the back gate will be closing at 3:20. If you arrive after this time, students will be picked up in the front of the school through the office.

Thank you for all you do to help us keep our students and staff safe during these times.

FRIDAYS ARE SPIRIT WEAR DAYS!

Every friday we encourage all students and staff to wear Silver Lake gear, or green and blue! We have a competition going to see how many class members can wear the most spirit wear!

We will have a spirit shop open to purchase shirts and gear soon.

Student lunch accounts

Parents, as a reminder, please check your student's lunch account.  It is important to check often so your student's lunch account does not go into a negative balance.  Our cafeteria manager has sent home letters and an email if your account is currently negative.

• BIRTHDAYS- NO FOOD, NO DRINKS, NO BALLOONS

  • You may bring small toys, stickers, pencils (if you want to bring something to share with others).

• Lunch Drop off:

  • Parents, please leave lunches in the vestibule, if you come before 9:45 to drop off a lunch. After that, you will need to get a raptor badge and place your student's lunch on or in the shelves right next to the cafeteria doors.

    • If you come during your child's lunch, you will need to raptor badge in, and go into the cafeteria as a visitor to hand it to your child. 

    • We wish we had enough staff to manage this, but we could really use your extra hands! Thanks for understanding.

• If you want to come into the school, and you will be around other children you MUST complete a Volunteer Background Check. This could take up to a few days to complete. Click Here.  If you are unsure if your volunteer background check has been approved or not, please contact Itzy in the Front Office at 817-251-5750. 

Lunch Visitors Will Start Sept. 5th

Upon arrival, you will need to use our intercom system and let the front office know you wish to have lunch with your student. Please state if it's inside or outside.  You will need to bring a valid state-issued ID and use our visitor kiosks in the vestibule to obtain a visitor's badge,  then proceed to the front office.  Please allow extra time before your scheduled time to get checked in.   You will need to bring your own lunch as we will not be able to accommodate visitor lunches through our lunch lines at this time.  You may bring lunch for your student or they may go through the line while you wait.

You will be meeting your child in our visitor area in front of the office.  Since we have very limited seating we will be following the schedule below:

• Mondays - Pre K, 1st, and 4th

• Tuesdays - Kinder and 3rd

• Wednesdays - 2nd and 5th

• Thursdays - All grades while spots last

• Fridays - All grades while spots last

• Returning Parent Volunteers- You must complete the volunteer background check EVERY SCHOOL YEAR.  Please be sure you click the link  to re-enroll for the 23-24 school year.

• Times to remember:

  • 7:20-Students will be able to enter the campus beginning at 7:20am in the morning. They may get breakfast until 7:35. After this, the breakfast line will be closed.

  •  7:40-Classes begin promptly at 7:40am. Please ensure that your child has time to get to their classroom and be in their spots ready to learn at 7:40!

    • Our outdoor staff come into the building at this time-as we begin serving our students in classrooms then!

• Tardies-Students are late if they are not in class by 7:40. If your student is late, please park your car and Raptor into the office. Please bring your ID. This will ensure students enter safely

  • 3:00-Dismissal is at 3pm.

From The District

Mathematics Monday is October 30! 

Nutrition Services is excited to announce the return of Mathematics Monday on October 30 during lunch! 

This fun and engaging event will take place at all elementary and middle school campuses. Age appropriate math problems have been incorporated onto a special treat given to all students that select a plate lunch this day. This event is aimed at connecting the cafeteria to the classroom in a fun and engaging way. Students can collaborate together to solve the math riddle while enjoying their lunch. Check out the department's promotional video!

We hope you'll join us help students recognize that "Math is everywhere, even in our kitchens!" Bon Appetit!
