Students can enter through multiple doorsโno need to stop directly in front.
Dismissal is at 3:30 PM in the front of the schoolโplease use the parent pick-up line.
Do not pick up students across the street, in the church parking lot, or other areas around the perimeter for safety reasons.
The first couple weeks are slower while everyone learns the routineโthank you for your patience!
๐ฝ Lunch Deliveries
No deliveries of food or other items from parents or restaurants during the school day.
Students should bring lunch from home or enjoy our free breakfast & lunch in the cafeteria.
If a student forgets something important, park and bring it to the front officeโstaff will call the student between classes.
โฐ Afternoon Check-Out
No student check-outs after 3:00 PM due to parent pick-up traffic in front of the school.
