#Engage, Energize,& Educate
May 25th, 2026
Dear Families,
We are looking forward to welcoming all students and staff back to school on Tuesday, May 26th. Learning will continue through the end of the school year, and we appreciate your continued partnership and support.
To help ensure a safe and efficient arrival process, please review the following reminders for morning drop-off:
If your child is a car rider and you arrive before 8:20 a.m., please use the full circle and pull forward to the stop sign to help alleviate congestion on Pleasant View Avenue.
If you are dropping your child off after 8:20 a.m. (and before 8:50 a.m.), please pull all the way forward to me at Door 2 (cafeteria entrance) to help keep traffic moving smoothly on Pleasant View Avenue.
Please have your child ready to exit the vehicle promptly.
If your child needs assistance or requires additional time to exit the vehicle, we kindly ask that you park in the Chevron bus lot near the garden and use the sidewalk to escort your child to me or to Door 1.
Thank you for your attention to this matter and for helping us maintain a safe and smooth arrival for everyone.
