Thursday, December 19th, is our last day before the winter break! Please plan ahead to ensure all students are picked up on time.

For car riders: Dismissal is from 2:30 – 3:00 P.M. Please make sure to arrive on time so everyone can start their holiday break promptly—including our staff!
For bus riders: A parent/guardian must be present at the bus stop to receive their child. If no one is there, the student will be brought back to campus.

Thank you for helping us end the semester smoothly and safely. Happy Holidays!
