Arrival & Dismissal

Drop Off & Pick Up
Last year we had a staggered arrival and dismissal.  It’s obvious we need to return to a stagger so the lines are not so long and move more smoothly.
Starting this 9/7, we would like to have 3rd-5th grades switch to the following schedule:
8:35 drop off
3:25 pickup
 
If your child is in preschool-2nd grade we will continue our 8:45 drop off and 3:15 pickup.  Please be sure to not arrive too early to clog the drop off of the older classes.  (Have children in both these groups?  Please drop the older child off in the first group and then either park to let the 2nd child in at their time or….you can drop them both off in the early group and the younger child can play on the playground until their 8:45 start time.)
Also, the car line should only be used if:
  • your child is able to get out of and in the car independently (with teachers opening doors)
  • you do not need to exit your car (parents should stay in cars and not need to get out to retrieve bags, etc.)
  • you do NOT have a preschooler (all preschoolers are walked around to the back door by their family.  You do not need to stand in the drop off line for K-5.)
If your child is not able to exit or enter the car quickly then you should park and walk them over. Please be sure to let other approved pick-up persons know to do this as well.

2021 Lunch / Recess Volunteers

We are so excited to once again be able to have parent volunteers come help during our lunch and recess hour! This is a great time for you to meet your children’s classmates and to give the teachers a mid-day break.

We will need two volunteers each day (except Wednesdays) 11:30-12:30. Are you able to volunteer once every month or every other month? 

There will always be a staff member with you during lunch and recess.  We work together!

(Please  note, all volunteers must show proof of vaccination to Marilu prior to your first scheduled volunteer date.  Every person on school grounds is required to wear a mask, regardless of vaccination status.)

Watercolor Class Raffle

We have a wonderful parent, Bre Larios, who recently asked to do a collaborative watercolor painting with each class as a potential fundraiser. Each class participated and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their special time creating and collaborating on their artwork.  The final paintings are absolutely beautiful!

We are going to raffle these paintings off so they can be enjoyed by YOU.  All students will bring home raffle tickets next week.  These tickets can be purchased for $5 each. Please write your name and the class letter/number of the painting for which you would like to purchase your ticket and place these and your cash in an envelope labeled: Raffle.  Drop off your envelopes by the morning of Friday, June 11th. (We will have a drop box outside at drop-off and pick-up.) We will hold the raffle Monday, June 14th in the afternoon and announce the lucky winners!
The class who sells the most tickets will win a piñata!

Why a raffle?  We want everyone to have a chance to keep these beautiful paintings.  Also, as our school is growing we will be adding a classroom next year and this will help with some of the expenses of putting together a new classroom for your kiddos.
