CAR DISMISSAL - We need your help!
Elementary Parents, Coming to the office to get students before the end of the day causes disruptions to our learning environment. We know that sometimes your child will have an appointment and need to be checked out early. Please plan to pick up your child before 2:30 p.m. unless you have made prior arrangements with the office staff. After 2:30 p.m., our office staff is busy preparing for dismissal. We ask that you please wait in your car, as parents waiting in front of the doors is a safety concern. Thank you for your help in keeping our school orderly and safe!
The Arkansas Department of Education has released a video recording of this event:
