SCHOOL HOURS:
Monday through Friday: 8:00-2:30 
​
Our learning begins at the start of the school day.  Please make sure your child is promptly at school by 8:00. If your family is late to school, please sign your child in to the office and have them walk independently to the classroom. Attendance is taken by 8:10 daily unless there is inclement weather. 
​Thank you for helping your child achieve this goal to start the learning day ready to focus.

Students may arrive on the east playground at 7:50 a.m. A bell will ring.  Students are to make a line by the outside door of the classroom. The school day begins promptly at 8:00 a.m.

Dismissal is at 2:30 p.m.   At dismissal, students will walk to the front of the building.  Students will stay in line until an adult arrives. Students are to say good-bye to his/her teacher before leaving. If you will be using the drive-through lane, please stay with your car; your first grader will be sent to your vehicle.


If your first grader will be picked up by an adult other than you or has a play date, please notify your child’s teacher. ​

INCLEMENT WEATHER: 
On the flagpole in front of the building, a green flag will be hoisted to signal before-school indoor morning meeting.  Please send your child into the cafeteria when the green flag is displayed and his/her teacher will pick him/her up there to start the school day. 
​
CLOTHING: 
Please send appropriate clothing for any possible weather changes.  Recess is daily and except during extreme weather conditions, students will be outside in the fresh air.  PLEASE LABEL all of your child’s items.
