Arrival and Departure Procedure
 See the current CM Parent Directory 

Car Pools 
Families are responsible for setting up their own car pools.  The CM Parent Directory lists addresses to find CM families in your neighborhood. 

BVSD School Bus Transportation
Bus routes are established each year and stops are routed due to eligibility.
Space available bus forms are online @bvsd.org under Transportation and also in the office. Riders have to be kindergarten age. The district does not start space available until mid-September.

Late Arrival and Early Pick-up Procedure
If your child arrives late to school he or she needs go to the office for a blue late slip. Pre-schoolers need to be escorted by an adult.  The student must have a blue late slip before being admitted to class.

Adults needing to pick up a student before the end of the school day (2:30) must check in the office to sign the student out. The student will be called from class by the office.  Parents of primary children will need a slip from the office to gather the child themselves.

Pick-up of PRESCHOOL AND KINDERGARTEN Student by Non-Custodial Adult
PRE+K children going home with adults other than parents or guardians listed on the transportation form must have a signed note of permission from the parents before the student will be released.  Remember to send a note if you are sending your PRE+K child home with a new or unfamiliar adult.  Staff members cannot release a PRE+K student to a non-custodial adult without written permission. Transportation forms are available from the preschool teachers. 
 
Parking
Parking is available in the South parking lots, both upper and lower.  Parking is not permitted on the street directly in front of the school. You can use it for quick drop off and pick up only. Do not park in the fire or bus lanes.

School Closures and Emergency Dismissal   
Emergency dismissals from school due to storms, power failures, etc. occur rarely and decisions are always based on the safety of students.  Parents may come to the office to pick up their child(ren), but we ask that they do not pick up other students unless the office has been notified by the parent(s) of those students.

School closures and cancellations also occur rarely.  Decisions are made by the superintendent and are alerts are given on the BVSD website homepage: www.bvsd.org and television channels 4, 7 & 9.  The following radio stations also announce closures or delays:

KHOW 630AM   
KOA 850AM   
KBOL 1490AM
