Welcome Back Message

As we ready for the first day of the new school year tomorrow, I want to offer you a few things that will make the school year a little smoother for you, your child, and everyone else.

Morning Drop-Off
If you feel comfortable allowing your child to walk in alone, please enter the car line on Greenbriar moving north.  Follow the car line east on Swift into the Circle Drive.  There will be only one drop off line, which will be supervised by faculty and staff, beginning at 7:40 a.m.  Planning your morning commute so that you arrive between 7:40 and 7:45 is ideal, and will reduce the time you sit in traffic. Faculty and staff will go into the building at 8:00 a.m.  We ask that all children are in class, ready for learning, no later than 8:00 a.m.

If you prefer to walk your child into the building, please find legal parking on the streets west of Greenbriar.  There is very little legal parking on streets around and behind the school.

First Day Packets
You received an envelope of important paperwork at Meet the Teacher.  Please complete and return that paperwork tomorrow morning.  If you did not attend Meet the Teacher, a packet will be available for you on Monday.

Pick-up
All students will be dismissed tomorrow and Tuesday at 3:15.  Please place the car tag on your rearview mirror with the number facing outward.  Your child should know the car pick-up number.  All cars using the pick-up line should have the car tag.  Cars without the car tag will be asked to park and walk up to this dismissal area.  During the first few days of school, as children learn their car numbers, the pick-up line will move a little slower.

After school care will begin later in the week on Wednesday.  Specialities sign-up is due on Wednesday and classes will begin next week.

Attendance
Students not in attendance tomorrow will be dropped from the roster.  Re-enrollment is based on space availability, and is not guaranteed.

PTO First Day Coffee
We invite you to join us in the Cafe for our annual first day coffee at 8:00 a.m..  Whether wiping away a few tears, or walking with a little spring in your step, sharing a few minutes together is a must do!
