Early Bird Club begins on Monday, August 11th. We know the 8:10 am start time creates logistical issues for some families. Barranca offers a supervised before school program, “The Early Bird Club” for students from 7:30-7:55 am, followed by supervised outdoor play. This is a free service. If your student needs to participate in The Early Bird Club, please read and return the permission slip as soon as possible. Your student may not attend the program without the signed permission slip. Drop-off is between 7:30-7:45. Students arriving after that time need to wait with parents until morning recess supervision begins at 7:55am. District policy allows for students to be on campus 15 minutes prior to the start of the school day at 7:55 am. There is no supervision before this time, unless your student is signed up to attend the Early Bird Club. You must complete the registration permission slip for your student to attend.
