Arrival & Dismissal

The main entrance to the school is at the front entrance to the building. Pick-up and drop-offs will be at this entry. Parents may drop off students in U-drive but cannot leave their vehicles unattended in the U-drive as it blocks buses. All other doors are used for emergency exiting, as in fire drills, etc.

Buses will arrive from 7:45 to 8:05 am.  Parents or carpool drop-offs should arrive no later than 8:00 for breakfast or no later than 8:05 for school announcements and morning du’a.

Morning schedule:

•Drop-offs (buses or parents) – 7:45 to 8:10

•Breakfast – 7:45 to 8:10

•Morning du’a and announcements – 8:05

•Class starts – 8:15

Dismissal:

•Students prepare to leave – 3:05 – 3:10

•Dismissal – 3:15

•After-school care – 3:20

Parents who pick up their children on a daily basis need not to sign out their child.  Your child can be picked up on the first floor near the entrance during dismissal. Students who usually board the bus and will have an out of the ordinary parent pick up will need to send in a note in advance and must sign out their child during pick-up.  Students will not be able to leave with family members or friends of the family unless they are listed on the Student Release Form prior to pick-up.

Parents dropping off students must drop off in the front of the building and should ensure that their child is greeted by a school staff member before leaving. Do not drop-off children and leave until your child is with a staff member.

No students are allowed in the school before 7:40 am or after 3:20 pm (unless child is registered for after-school care).  Parents must pick-up promptly at dismissal time and should notify school of late pick-up due to circumstances. Under no circumstances will a child be sent to another location or picked up by another adult without prior notification by the parent/legal guardian.  Fees will be assessed for after-school care from 3:20 and on.

EARLY DISMISSAL

Scheduling of doctor or dental appointments during school hours is not encouraged.  A note from the parent/legal guardian requesting an early dismissal is to be given to the homeroom teacher.  Parents are to pick up the student in the school office at that time requested and sign them out.
