Back to School Summer Open House Reminder  

Our Annual Summer Open House event for families will be held this Friday, August 29, 2014 from 9:00am-12:00pm. Families may visit the school between those hours to meet classroom teachers. This informal event is optional. Student homeroom assignments and middle/high school schedules can be found in SchoolBrains. 


 

First Day of School
The first day of school is September 2, 2015! Doors open at 7:00am for drop off. Homeroom starts at 7:30am. All students arriving before homeroom period should report to the cafeteria (grades K-4) or gym (grades 5-12).

As a reminder, traffic around the school, particularly during the first few days, can cause extra delays.  Please plan accordingly.  We will have additional staff located throughout the campus to assist in the traffic flow, as well as to support students as they enter the school.
 
Drop Off / Pick Up

Start the year off with good attendance and punctuality.  

 

The best drop off time to beat traffic is to plan on dropping off at 7:15 am.

  • Morning drop off begins at 7:00am.
  • K-4 students can be dropped off along the curb outside of door I. 
  • 5-12 students can be dropped off in the drop off lane near door E.
  • Both locations are for quick drop and drive in order to keep the traffic flowing.
In the event a parent needs additional time, please pull into a parking space to allow traffic to flow freely around you.
