Late Arrivals ▪ Any students arriving late to school will have to enter through the main office on Patricia Avenue. ▪ Once the school day starts, we will have a single point of entry ▪ If parents are arriving for conferences and meetings, they need to park in the Parking Lot on Patricia Avenue and sign-in in the main office
Rainy Dismissal ▪ When we have rain during dismissal, we tend to have more cars in the car line. ▪ Because we do not have a covered area in front of the school, we ask for car riders to wait in the covered hallways near the main office for their pickup. ▪ School staff will be in the car line with radios. We will be approaching each vehicle to ask for student names and announcing the names over the PA system, so students can come out when their car arrives. ▪ This has proven to be the most efficient process to move the car line under these circumstances. We ask for your patience with the weather and the car line. Our goal is to make sure our students exit the campus safely. ▪ Bus riders will load the buses like normal and walkers are allowed to leave the campus after the 4: 10 bell, unless we have lightning.
