Arrival and Dismissal: As we begin the new year, we anticipate potential delays and appreciate everyone's patience.

-
Kiss and Ride: Please be sure to display your numbered hang tag on your rearview mirror when using Kiss & Ride. For safety, all students must enter and exit the vehicle on the passenger side only. Parents/Guardians should not exit the vehicle.

Buses: Buses may be delayed at the beginning of the school year as transportation fine-tunes routes. Should you have questions regarding transportation, please contact the main office (571-642-6300) or FCPS Area 1 Transportation Office (703-446-2150).

Kindergarten Students: Kindergarten students must be met by an adult at the bus stop, Door 1, or Kiss & Ride. If an adult is not at the bus stop, kindergartners are returned to the school office. Parents/Guardians will be contacted to pick them up at school.

Walking Students to Class the First Day of School: Due to our concern for safety and our desire to begin establishing important routines on the first day of school, we do not allow parents/guardians to walk children to classrooms on the first day of school, except for our kindergarten students and new to Island Creek students. Please note that the exception for our kindergarten students and new students is only for the first day of school.
