Car Rider Reminder
Thank you for your patience as we implemented a new car rider system this year. We are asking and reminding parents that all car riders should be picked up no later than 3:45pm. Students are released at 3:30 each day. Please be here in line before 3:45 to pick up your child. Teacher contract time ends at 3:45pm, which means they have to be released from duty at that time.
Beginning Monday, February 3rd, students who have not been picked up by then will be taken to our after school care area. You will have to park and come inside to pick them up from an administrator as teachers are released at 3:45pm. Pick up will be in the ESTAR area near the bus loop by the cafeteria. Please know if it would be more convenient for you we have an after school care program at a cost and we offer bus transportation for 100% of our students free of charge. Please contact the office if bus information is needed. We thank you so much for your help with this matter.
