Dismissal

We have staggered dismissal times to reduce traffic density and facilitate efficiency and safety. Extended care options such as Stay and Play (for Pre-K) and Kids Club are also available until 6pm.

Pre-Kindergarten students should be picked up in front of the PreK building 12:30-12:45pm. PreK students participating in Stay and Play should be picked up in front of the PreK building from 3:10-3:30pm (2:10-2:30pm on Wednesday)

Kindergarten – 5th Grades students must be picked up in front of the Lower School between 3:10-3:30pm, Wednesday 2:10-2:30pm.

To ensure an efficient and timely dismissal, your pick-up number must be CLEARLY DISPLAYED while in the dismissal line (it is easiest for us to see numbers that are hung from the rear-view mirror). Students not picked up by the end of dismissal will automatically be sent to the Kids Club program, located in the Dining Hall, and a fee will be charged.
