Dismissal Process for Grades K - 8
Upper grades will leave from the upper campus side unless they have siblings in the lower grades. Numbers are not used for the upper grades.
The upper grade students riding with lower grade students will have a designated place to go to until their ride gets there.
The lower grade students will dismiss from the lower campus side of the school and will still be using numbers.
Please be patient as the kinks are worked out with our dismissal process.
