Thank you for a great start to the school year! It was a wonderful and smooth beginning of the day. It was also extra special with our visitors: Congressman Will Hurd, Superintendent Brian Gottardy, Board President Shannon Grona, and Board of Trustee Tony Jaso. What an honor to have them here to share in our morning!
Our staff has been working with the students and parents to determine the mean of transportation for all of our students. We will begin dismissal at 2:40pm (Students will move a few minutes before in order to practice the routine with their teachers the first few days). All car riders will be in the front of the school. Bus riders will be out back with any parent park and pick up car riders. * Please note that car riders leaving with “Parent Park & Pickup” will not leave the class line. They will go with the other car riders out front and then be dismissed after 2:50. We are clarifying this expectation so that we can address some of the safety concerns that we have received. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Daycare Riders and Walkers will be properly escorted to the gym areas to begin their dismissal procedures in those areas. Our walkers will have crossing guards to assist if they are crossing Wilderness Oak.
Please note that the car rider line will take a little longer the first week of school as students learn the routine, recall the process, and new drivers begin participating.
Thank you for your patience and for understanding the need for specific routines as we dismiss almost 850 students.
Thank you,
Tara Bailey
