Please Read: New Morning Drop-off Procedures and Routes Beginning Friday, August 28th!
Attention Parents and Guardians: In order to expedite student drop-off before school, we have changed our drop-off procedures. We hope this will create a quicker morning routine for you and your students.
Before school drop-off will begin at 7:35 am.
First grade students will now be dropped off at the front CES entrance along with buses. Parents dropping off 1st grade students must stay on the right side (Fire Lane) of the CES circle drive. Buses will be moving on the inside of the circle drive. Please do not pass buses as you exit. (See map below.)
Kindergarten and preschool students will continue to be dropped off at the CELC/preschool entrance. If you have students in multiple grades, please continue to use the preschool entrance. (See map below.)
Thank you for your cooperation as we continue to improve our processes.
Note: The changes above are only for AM drop off. We will continue to use the current after-school procedures; however, we have made modification to improve our processes to speed up your child's pick-up. This includes keeping students inside the building until you arrive in the CELC circle drive.
Please remember to display your student tag number
