First Day of School Arrival Information:

-K-5 Parents/guardians may walk their child to class on Thursday, 8/10 starting at 8:00. Families will need to park in the parking lot and walk their students to the main hallway entrance (located next to the front office) to enter the building. Parents can walk their child to the classroom for drop off. We ask that you then exit the building. The tardy bell rings and instruction begins at 8:42.

Please be cautious when walking in the parking lot as this is an active car line. If you live close to the school, please consider walking or bike riding to reduce vehicle congestion. Starting on Friday, 8/11 parents/guardians can walk students to the entrance of the main hallway doors only.

-Parents dropping off students in the car line need to pull all the way forward and follow all instructions by staff in the car drop off line. Cell phone use is not permitted, and the speed limit is 5 mph at all times. Please watch carefully for pedestrians in the parking lot.

-MS students will enter the school through the gates between the gym and media center and report to the gym until the first bell. MS students report to their 1st period classroom when the first bell rings at 8:35.

-Free breakfast is served in the cafeteria daily 8:00-8:35.
