Good afternoon SES families! As we welcome you back to a new school year, we have some important reminders:
1. August 3rd from 4-6 p.m. will be our Open House at SES. This is an excellent time to walk your student into the building, meet their new teachers and drop off supplies and medications. We will also have extra school supplies from the back to school give away set up if you were unable to attend. Parents may not enter the building on Friday, August 6th (the first full day of school).
2. Morning drop off begins at 7:30 a.m. just like last year and is limited to one lane with 3 drop off spots along the front porch of the school. Students will eat breakfast in the classrooms with the teachers again this year. Students need to be dropped off in time to have their breakfast before classes begin at 8 a.m.
3. Afternoon pickup is 2:50-3:15. Please keep the interior lane open until 2:45. After that pickup is in both lanes. Please do not motion for your child to come to your cars or into traffic. Teachers will walk them to cars to prevent any child from being injured. Please make sure your child's teacher is aware of their afternoon plans (bus or parent pick up).
4. Registration day on Wed. Aug. 4th is for new students only.
5. Friday Aug. 6th is the first full day of school.
We look forward to your return this week!
