Arrival

We will welcome students into the building beginning at 7:30am.  The school day begins at 7:50am. Please be sure to leave enough time for traffic and other mishaps to get here.  It is important your child arrives on time so they do not miss any learning opportunities and have time to settle into the day.  

In order to support families who need to drop off their students before the classrooms open, the library will be open for early arrivals between 7:15 am and 7:30 am.  This will be staffed by two support staff, and is intended to be a safety net for those who simply have to arrive before 7:30 am. Unfortunately, this early arrival time is not an option for our PreK students at this time, as we will not be in ratio to support PreK students within this time range.

Parent Drop Off

In order to support the flow of traffic and the arrival of all students, please use the loop in front of the building for a quick drop off, and a quick hug or kiss goodbye. You can exit the vehicle if you would like to watch your student enter the building, but please don't use the loop if you would like to come in the building.  

If you are planning on entering the building, please park in the spots facing the highway. This is a space where you can comfortably leave your vehicle and not feel rushed. Thank you!

**If your student rides the bus and it arrives after 7:50am, they will not be marked tardy**

New Dismissal Procedure

To best support students and families, their safety, and ensure that 100% of students are dismissed to the correct location 100% of the time, we have made a few adjustments to our dismissal procedure at RES for the 25-26 school year.

• 2:20pm:  Preschool will be dismissed.  PreK Teachers will dismiss directly to families.

• 2:30pm:  Students attending Part 2 and Mr. G's Programs (Adventure, STEAM, Radiate & Audubon) will be dismissed.

• 2:33pm:  Parent/Guardian Pick Ups & Walkers will be dismissed.

• 2:37pm - 2:45pm:  Students will be dismissed to busses.  We will have staff to direct students to the correct bus.

Parents/Guardians picking up their child may pull into the parking loop.  We ask that you STAY in your car.  Your student will come to you.  We will have staff members around the loop to ensure your child makes it to you safely.

Unfortunately, we ask that students and families not stay on campus and utilize the Playground after school. This space is contracted out to our Afterschool partners.

Please do not arrive prior to 5 minutes before your student's dismissal time.  This will help reduce traffic congestion.

We ask that changes to your child’s normal routine be made directly into Pickup Patrol (see below) no later than 1:30 in the day in order to minimize disruptions to classrooms.

Buses will be fully loaded by 2:50 p.m. and drop off times will vary depending on location.

Please be mindful of others, and we greatly appreciate your patience and support!

We have been busy over the summer with lots of painting, projects, repairs, and cleaning.  We have added a Gaga Pit to the playground area, as well as ramps outside of the front classroom doors to ensure everything is accessible for all students.  We are so looking forward to having everyone back next Wednesday, August 27th.
