Principal's Notes to Parents

1. First Week of School
First Day of school is August 7, 2017.  The doors will open at 7:00 am.  Parents will be able to walk students to classes on the first 3 days only (August 7th, 8th, and 9th).  After August 9th, parents must stop in the front lobby unless going to front office or to pay for lunch/breakfast in the cafeteria.  All visits to teachers must have an appointment and an approval to go to classes.  

2. Car Riders
Please follow the school's traffic flow plan for car rider drop-off and car-rider dismissal (available to you during Open House).  There can be no left turns into the school driveway in the mornings and in the afternoons.  Car rider dismissal is usually very long the first week or two of school. Please be patient and stay in your cars until your child is released to you.  You will not be allowed to come into the building to get your child during dismissal.  Also, there are no early check-outs after 1:30. 

3. Breakfast/Lunch
If you are applying for free/reduced breakfast and lunch, you must pay the full price for each child until your application as been approved.  Last year's breakfast price was $1.40 and lunch was $2.50.  Updated prices may be available prior to school starting.  You may apply for free/reduced rates online at http://www.dekalbschoolsga.org/school-nutrition/fr-meal-applications/
