Please be prompt in picking up pick up children at their classrooms at 11:45 AM. In an emergency, be sure to notify the school concerning any early or delayed pick up of your child.

A late fee of $1.00 per minute will be charged when a child is not picked up on time.

Also, be sure to notify the teacher in writing if anyone other than the usual parent/driver will be picking up your child - including when your child is going home with another classmate. No child may leave with an unauthorized driver!

An optional Lunch Bunch program is offered Mondays through Fridays from 11:45-1:15 for an additional fee. A healthy lunch and beverage for each child should be brought from home.

All children need to be picked up by 1:15 by an authorized adult. As mentioned above, a note is required for a child to go home with anyone other than the usual parent/driver.
