💚🤍 Dismissal Reminder 💚🤍

We understand that emergencies happen and sometimes plans need to change! To help us ensure a safe, smooth, and organized dismissal, please make all dismissal/transportation changes before 3:00 PM whenever possible.

Please remember that it is best to communicate any dismissal changes directly through the school office rather than messaging your child’s teacher. Our teachers are busy teaching throughout the day and may not see messages in time. The office can make sure the change is communicated to the appropriate staff and your child before dismissal.

Changes received after 3:00 PM can be difficult to communicate before dismissal begins.

Thank you for helping us get every student where they need to go safely! 💚🤍
