A Friendly Reminder About Dismissal
The dismissal period is usually very busy, and ensuring students leave safely is our top priority. We kindly ask parents to follow the instructions of security personnel and pick up their children in an orderly manner. Except for students participating in Explorers programs or the PlayLab, all other students must leave the school building and public areas promptly after school. Let us work together to create a safe and organized dismissal process.
