Arrival: Doors open at 7:20 am for drop-off. Out of respect for others, remain in the drop-off line until the car reaches the orange cones. A staff member will open the car door and greet the student(s) for the day. Student drop-off is the lane closest to the building. Please do not drop your student off when no adult is outside. Please do not drop your student off in the left lane. After 7:35, students are considered tardy.
The Montessori environment is designed to assist children in becoming independent learners. This independence begins with the arrival at school. We encourage our students to enter the school building with limited parent assistance. This looks like a quick goodbye at the pod entrance or in the car line. Students should have all that they need for the day including coats, backpacks and lunch boxes.
Dismissal: The school bell rings at 2:35. For safety our classes will dismiss at different times. Please wait outside at the assigned door for your student(s). For families with many students, we will dismiss at the door of the youngest child. Example: a family has 3 students (k, 2nd and 5th). This family would pick at the early childhood wing. Please park in the designated parking spots when you arrive. Do not park in the pick up lines.
