It is each child's responsibility with the help of his/her parent to be at school on time. Late arriving students create a disruption in the classroom. Rooms are open at 8:35 and students are to report directly to their classrooms. Early dismissal: If an emergency arises when it is necessary to take your child out of school during the day, please come to the school office. Students will be released to authorized individuals ONLY. If at all possible, avoid the 3:00 - 3:15 P.M. time block. Withdrawing students: If you are planning to move, please notify the school as soon as possible indicating: The last day of attendance. Approximate location to which you are moving.
