Arrival & Dismissal

Chester Area Middle School opens its doors for students at 8:28 am.

Idling

If you are picking up a student, please ensure your vehicle is turned off while parked and is not left idling.

Arriving Late

Students who arrive late (after the beginning of first class) must sign-in at the office.

Parent Pick-up

Parents who are picking up students at the end of the day are encouraged to wait until after dismissal, rather than having students called out of class a few minutes prior to bus dismissal. Constant interruptions (paging individual students for dismissal) at the end of the day creates a lot of confusion and denies all students of valuable class time. Thank you for your anticipated support and understanding of this request.
