TARDINESS
When a student is late in arriving at school he/she needs to sign in on the late student form.

SCHOOL ARRIVAL/DEPARTURE

School begins promptly at 8:15 a.m.  Supervision for students begins at 8:00 a.m.  We advise parents to not have their children arrive prior to this time unless previous arrangements have been made with the classroom teacher and/or school office.  Choir students may arrive at their designated time, and students in the Before School YMCA program may arrive at their arranged times.  We monitor student absences and tardiness and notify parents of concerns at the end of each trimester.  We are striving to have students in attendance and on time except when they must stay home due to illness or family planned absences.

Upon arrival at school, students should play on the playground or line up for their classes outside the door nearest their classroom.  The designated areas will be posted along with the class lists at the beginning of the school year.  Children will not be permitted to enter the building before the entrance bell signal except by special permission of the teacher.

During severe weather, when school is in session, children will be admitted to the cafeteria or gym upon arrival.

School ends at 2:50 p.m.  At that time, students are to get directly on their bus, walk or ride home, or go directly to the YMCA after school program.  Students who would like to play on the playground after school are to go home, check in with whomever their care provider is and then return to the playground.

Morning kindergarten and K-CARE students are to arrive with the rest of the students between 8:00 a.m. and 8:15 a.m.  K-CARE students will leave their program for lunch at 11:05 a.m. and then go outside for supervised recess until the 12:00 noon start of afternoon kindergarten.

Afternoon kindergarten students are to arrive between 11:45 a.m. and 12:00 noon.  They will leave at the end of the day with the rest of the students at 2:50 p.m.
