To help minimize confusion and congestion at the end of the day, please submit dismissal changes to the office before 2:00 p.m. the day of the Early Dismissal.
All early pick-ups must be completed before 3:15 p.m. After 3:15 p.m., parents/guardians will need to wait until regular dismissal at 3:50 p.m. The buses are arriving, and we are completing end of day activities. Last minute changes make it hard to notify the teacher and sometimes locate the students quickly. On 3-hour early dismissal days, early pick-ups must be completed before 12:15 p.m. After 12:15 p.m., parents/guardians will need to wait until dismissal at 12:50 p.m. Thank you for your cooperation!
