School Supplies List
Know Before You Go: Morning Arrival Procedures! 🚗💨
Jones Families, let's keep morning drop-off safe, smooth, and speedy! Remember: our drop-off lane is like a drive-thru—quick in, quick out, and no ordering extra hugs once you’ve pulled forward! 😉
⏰ARRIVAL TIMELINE
7:30–8:10 AM: Front entrance drop-off only.
Breakfast & Gym: Students eating breakfast go straight to the cafeteria; all others head to the gym until 8:05 AM. Teachers will pick up students from the gym at 8:05 AM.
Tardy Bell at 8:10 AM: Punctuality is a key lifelong skill! If arriving after 8:10 AM, an adult must walk the student into the office for a pass. Instruction begins at 8:10 AM.
🚗 DROP-OFF ROUTE & TRAFFIC RULES
Use the Front Driveway ONLY: Do not drop off on Van Buren or use staff parking lots.
No Right Turns: Drivers coming from Lamar Blvd. *may not* turn right into the school (buses, daycare, and staff only). Please follow all posted traffic signs!
🎥 Watch our brief drop-off procedure video!
Thanks for helping us keep drop-off safe—and for avoiding any *Fast & Furious: Parent Edition* maneuvers. See you at Meet the Teacher! 🌟
