After School Activities/Daycare
No afterschool activities are currently open. It is extremely important for children to be picked up at their designated time, due to no afterschool care.
Bus Transportation
All buses will operate at 50% capacity, which means arrival and dismissal times may be staggered if there is a need for multiple routes. Students are required to wear a mask. Discipline polices will be strictly enforced to ensure the health safety of students and drivers.
Car Rider Procedures
All students, even bus riders, will be issued two new car rider tags at the beginning of the school year. If your child is a daily bus/van rider, please keep this tag in a safe location if your child is a car rider even for one day. Please assist your child in memorizing the number that has been assigned to him/her. Returning students will use the SAME number as the previous year. Siblings will be issued the SAME number. This car tag should be displayed prominently or hung from the rear-view mirror so that staff members can easily see this number to “call” your child to your vehicle. These car tags should be given to an adult(s) who is also listed on the child’s sign out sheet and has permission to pick your child up from school. We also ask that adults REMAIN in their vehicle as children are escorted to you. Car tags must also be presented to pick–up students from any after school activity including clubs and dances. Without a current car tag, the driver must park in a designated parking space, wear a mask and present a photo ID in the main office. Students must be picked up prior to 2:50 as we do not have after school care at this time.
