Arrival and Dismissal

 The bell rings at 8:25.  Students proceed to the side door to enter the school.  At 2:15, students are walked out to meet their parents/guardians at the curb.


Late Arrival

Students are considered, "late" when they arrive past the 8:30 late bell.  When this happens, the student and supervising adult should go to the office to secure a late pass and let us know she/he is in the building. The pass is given to the teacher.


Milk Purchase 
Snack milk costs, $.50 each.  We ask that the order be placed for the whole week, usually on Mondays. 


Bathroom

Our bathrooms are located outside the room, on the first floor.  Students may leave to the bathroom by signing out on the front white board and taking a pass.  Generally, permission is not needed.
