A Space For ALL

A big shout out to our students, staff, families and community for helping start the 2021-2022 school year off right! Our Kings Park lions are learning about all the exciting spaces and adventures that await them this year. As the year gets underway, you can expect weekly emails from your child's teacher highlighting the learning and fun that awaits your child each week.


Kings Park Transportation Card

Transportation Reminder

Each Kings Park ES family received a yellow card to help teachers with your child's daily dismissal. We ask that you please fill this out, pin it to your child's backpack and that the card remains for the school year. 

Bus stop and route information was shared last week with families via an FCPS email and is also available on your ParentVue accounts. For more information about bus transportation, including how to access the Bus Delay Notification System, visit the Transportation page.


Kings Park ES Reminder: Arrival and Dismissal

Kings Park ES bell schedule is 8:40am- 3:35pm. Please see the below map that illustrates students arrival and dismissal. Our school doors will open at 8:30am. As a reminder parents are welcomed to walk their student to class the first week of school and beginning, August 23rd we ask that you say your goodbyes at the school entrances.
