Attention: Change in Dismissal Procedures!

Starting this week, we will give reminders to students that at dismissal they will need to leave campus. We are no longer able to allow students to stay on campus at the playground or field unsupervised. If your child is an independent walker, they must leave campus or be in direct supervision from their guardian. This is in order to ensure safety and well-being of after-school programs that are happening on campus.
