Hey, Wildcat families! Mornings are getting so much better, but we still need your help keeping morning arrival safe and efficient.
🟢 If you are waiting with your child until the doors open, please use the green lane closest to the school.
🟡 If you are dropping off and leaving, please use the yellow lane away from the school and continue moving.
⚠️ Please avoid stopping in a way that blocks both lanes. This forces other vehicles to reverse and creates a safety concern for students and families walking nearby.
🍳 If your child eats breakfast at school, please make sure they arrive with enough time to eat before class begins.
⏰ Arriving after 8:10 a.m.? Please park and come into the front office with your child and a valid government-issued photo ID. You will need to complete a tardy form before your child can go to class.
🚘 Picking up after dismissal has ended? Please park and come into the front office with a valid government-issued photo ID to sign your child out.
We understand that delays happen! These check-in and sign-out procedures are part of district policy and help us ensure every student arrives and leaves safely.
Thank you for your patience, cooperation, and continued support of our Wildcats! ...

All jokes aside, we need everyone’s help keeping Caliente Drive clear heading toward Bardin Road. Please leave enough room near the intersection for cars exiting the dismissal lanes to safely pass through. When this area is blocked, traffic backs up and families cannot safely exit, slowing down dismissal for everyone. ...

🚗 Both staff parking lots are reserved for teachers and staff. All students should be dropped off at the front of the school using the designated drive-through lanes. The back parking lot is reserved for buses and students in specialized support programs.

Dismissal Reminders
K–6 car-rider parents, thank you so much for staying in your cars and knowing your numbers. Dismissal is getting quicker and smoother each day!
For the safety of all students, please do not walk up during car-rider dismissal. Students will not be released to parents who walk up during this time. Please remain in your vehicle and follow the regular car-rider procedure.
Pre-K 4 Parents:
• Families picking up siblings should use the lane closest to Caliente.
• Families without siblings should use the lane closest to the fence.
• Please remain in your vehicle and have your car tag visible and ready.
• Walkers should go to the end of the sidewalk, remain outside the fence, and have their pickup sign ready. Please do not enter or walk through the parking lot.
Thank you for following these procedures and helping us keep dismissal safe, quick, and efficient!

👟 PE Days
Please send your child to school in appropriate athletic shoes on PE days so they can participate safely and comfortably.
🚗 Car Rider Dismissal
To keep our car rider line moving safely and efficiently, please remain in your vehicle and stay in the designated line. Do not park and walk to the front of the school or the flagpole for pickup. Students will not be called for parents or guardians who walk up.
Please know your child’s dismissal number or have it clearly visible. When everyone follows the car rider process, dismissal moves much faster for all families.
🪪 Campus Entry
Anyone entering the school building must present a valid photo ID. Please have your identification ready when you arrive.
🍎 Lunchbox Items
If your child cannot open an item in their lunchbox independently, please open it ahead of time or place it in an easy-to-open container. This prevents children from having to wait for assistance and helps ensure that all our littlest Wildcats have plenty of time to enjoy their lunch.
Thank you for helping us keep our students safe and our school day running smoothly! ...
