School Hours
Updated 7/19/22
School Hours: 8:35am - 3:05pm
School Office: 7:30am - 4:00pm
During the school office hours, parents and visitors can get assistance from office staff either by telephone or in person.Student Arrival: 8:10am-8:30am
Students cannot arrive to school before 8:10am, as there is no adult supervision for your child prior to that time. Your child arriving to school prior to 8:10am jeopardizes their safety.
Tardiness: AFTER 8:35am
School starts at 8:35am Any student who arrives after 8:35am is considered tardy and must report immediately to the office and receive a tardy pass. Tardy students will not be accepted into class without a pass from the office.
Student Dismissal: 2:55pm-3:05pm
Parents will not be allowed to enter the building during dismissal and should wait outside at their child's designated dismissal area to meet their child. This school policy is necessary to maximize the safety of all our students. If there is a need to speak to the principal or assistant principal, please call the main office to schedule an appointment at a later date as the principal's focus at this time is a safe and orderly dismissal.
Early Dismissal: Students WILL NOT be released early from school without the office receiving communication and consent from a parent IN ADVANCE. Also, STUDENTS WILL NOT BE DISMISSED EARLY from school after 2:15pm. After 2:15pm, PARENTS MUST WAIT OUTSIDE until students are dismissed.
