Greetings Families,

We have had a fun-filled and exciting first two days with our students.  In order to continue our efforts to make dismissal run smoothly, please keep the following information in mind.

  • Please make sure that your student knows how they are getting home each day.  Try to avoid changes throughout the day as this may create some confusion.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
  • Kiss and Ride Families – Please stay in your car in the Kiss and Ride Lane.  Make sure your card is visible on your dashboard to school staff who will then call students outside.
    • Please do not come to the cafeteria door to pick up your child. Students will be dismissed to cars ONLY.
    • If you do not yet have a Kiss and Ride card, please contact the main office (703-279-8400).
  • Walkers - All walkers will be dismissed through door #2. Please meet your child outside door #2. 
  • Bus Families – As the county has communicated, bus transportation may be delayed.  Please stay at the bus stop and wait for your students.
    • Parents may access the Bus Delay Notification System to receive the delayed bus report.
      • Morning bus route information will be available until noon.
      • Afternoon bus route information will be available 1:00-7:00PM
    • More information about FCPS bus transportation can be found here.

We appreciate your patience and support as we work together to ensure the safety of each of our students.
