Arrival Time Children should not arrive at bus stops or walk to school too early as no supervision is provided. Bus patrols arrive at their bus stops 10 minutes before the bus is scheduled to arrive. Kindergarten and fifth grade students go directly to their classrooms. Children are not permitted to make after-school arrangements by telephone during the school day. Arrangements should be made in advance for transportation home.
Buses run their regular routes.
An Emergency Closing Form should be returned to school with specific instructions about where children should go when school is dismissed unexpectedly early. The classroom teacher will keep these forms. Extended Day staff will try to contact parents to pick up extended day students early. Extended Day will close once all students have been picked up. The decision to close school or delay openings is made by the Superintendent of Schools, normally between 5 and 6 am.
