Morning Arrival by Car

Parents should use the parking lot roundabout on Brookhaven Road to keep our students safe to drop off students. Please park on the street and allow students to walk to the schoolyard if necessary, as parking will be tight due to the Cassidy co-location.

Morning Arrival by School Bus

Students who arrive by school bus will enter the building from the schoolyard Brookhaven Entrance. Students will be greeted by a staff member and escorted to their class’ designated waiting area.

Breakfast and Admission for PreK, Kindergarten, 1st, and K-2 ES

Students may arrive at 7:30 AM for breakfast in the Little School House cafeteria. Each table will be labeled with the room number and teacher’s name, and a staff member will be present to direct students to their table. Breakfast is served from 7:30 – 7:55 AM and is free to all students. Students not eating breakfast should remain seated in the cafeteria until their teacher arrives at 8:00 AM to pick them up and escort them to class. Parents may not enter the building during morning admission.

Breakfast and Admission for Grades 2-8 

Students may arrive at 7:30 AM for breakfast in the main cafeteria. Breakfast is served from 7:30 – 7:50 AM and is free to all students. When students are done eating, they must report to the schoolyard. Each classroom line will be labeled with the room number, and a staff member will be present to direct students to their line. All students must be lined up at 8:00 AM when their teachers come to pick them up. In the case of severe, inclement weather, grades 2-8 should report to the auditorium and sit by class. Parents may not enter the building during inclement weather admission.

Late Arrival

Any student who arrives after 8:00 AM will be marked late. If a student is late, they must report to the main office in the main building to get a late slip. Students with classes in the Little Schoolhouse will be escorted to their classrooms.

Dismissal

Students are dismissed to the schoolyard at 2:39 PM on regular dismissal and 11:39 PM on early dismissal days. Parents/caregivers must pick up their children on time during normal and early dismissal days.
