ARRIVAL/DEPARTURE and BREAKFAST
The following guidelines will help ensure the safety of all. Please discuss these guidelines and emphasize the safety factors with your child. Parents are not permitted through the gates at any point in time.
- The gates to campus will open at 8:30 AM. It is essential that students do not arrive on campus earlier than 8:30 AM. If students arrive early, parents will be notified and reminded of campus hours
- Students may enter campus through any of our gates (Office, Parent drop off gate, Bus gate, Basketball Courts)
- Adult walkers escorting their children may walk students as far as the gates and should not congregate in front of the school. It’s a drop-and-go.
- Parents/Guardians may not drop students off in the parking lot. Please use our drop-off and pick-up lanes if delivering students by vehicle.
- Bus riders will enter through the bus gate and report directly to class.
- Breakfast will be served from 8:30-8:45. Students wanting breakfast will report to the cafeteria beginning at 8:30 AM.
- Cross streets only at crosswalk corners on the way to and from school. Obey all traffic signs and crossing guard’s directions.
- Bikes should be walked on and off the school grounds, placed into the bike racks, and properly locked. Bikes are not allowed in the covered walkways or in the office.
- Students are expected to arrive at school on time. Tardy students cause disruption to the educational rights of other students. Excessive tardies can result in disciplinary action (refer to Student Rights & Responsibilities Handbook)
- Students staying for sports events are required to abide by school rules.
