Before School Programs
Afterschool Programs: ON HOLD
We are taking a pause in afterschool programs due to low enrollment and ongoing issues with vendors. Please reach out to Maryellen Grant with your thoughts.
Drop Off Procedures
- All entrance doors will need to remain locked for safety reasons.
- Never leave your car unattended in the parent pick up and drop off lane.
- Before School Programs: Please arrive between 8:05-8:10 am for the 8:15 am program time. Students will be admitted by their program instructor from the side entrance at the front of the carpool lane by Ms. Borra’s office. Do not leave your child unattended outside of the school. If you arrive after 8:15 am, you will need to check in at the main office at the front of the school and let the main office know where they are going so they can direct the student where to go. Please ensure that your child has connected with their program instructor before leaving the school campus.
