Daily Schedules

Our schedules for the week are different due to late-start Mondays.

Students are not to arrive more than 15 minutes before school starts.

At the end of the school day, students need to go straight to parent pickup, the bus lines, or walk home. 

 

Mondays

The school day is from 10:00 am-3:30 pm

Tuesday-Friday

The school day is from 9:00 am-3:30 pm.

When students arrive at school, they need to go to the playground to play or the cafeteria to eat breakfast. Families need to drop off students at the designated spots and not classroom doors. We do allow Kindergarten families to help their students find the classroom for the first week of school; after that week, they need to follow the schoolwide expectations.

 

Lunch Times

Kindergarten- 11:00-11:25

1st Grade- 11:15-11:40

2nd Grade- 11:45-12:10

3rd Grade- 12:00-12:25

4th Grade- 12:30-12:55

5th Grade- 12:45-1:10

 

Picking up Students from School

At the End of the Day

  1. Parent Pickup Line
    Stay in your car and use the designated parent pickup line. A staff member will ask for your student’s name and have them come out to your car.

  2. Walk-Up Pickup
    Park your car and walk to the area next to the cafeteria. A staff member will ask for your student’s name and have them come meet you.

Please note: Family members must wait by the cafeteria—not at classroom doors or along the breezeways that lead to the cafeteria.

 

Appointments During the Day or Late Arrival

You must come into the school office to sign your student out if they are attending an appointment. If your student is returning to school after an appointment, you must come into the school office to sign them back in.

If your student is arriving late to school, you must come into the school office and sign them in.
