  • 1st, 4th Grade - 8:25 a.m.

Daily Health Screener

This will be filled out by families daily before you arrive at the drop off. Do not answer yes to the questions if your child’s symptoms are related to a chronic condition such as allergies and asthma. Please provide a doctor’s note to Celia (the secretary) notifying us of the condition. 

If a family member has not filled out the screener, the child will go through these questions with a staff member. This will greatly slow down the entry process. Please fill out the screener!

Arrival and Dismissal

Arrival and Dismissal Map

It is critical that you arrive at your start time at the correct entrance, give your loves to your child and then walk or drive away. This will leave parking and physical space for the next group of families dropping off. URGENT - Please do not double park, block driveways and please follow traffic rules. Thanks.

While there are 15 minutes between each entry, we hope to reduce this to 10 once the school and families have gotten the hang of this.

Dates for DL and In Person Schedule Changes

Students are not eligible for bus transportation if they live within 1.5 miles from the school site.

For Special Ed students, parents must contact the BUSD Special Education Department and request transportation with their child's program supervisor or special education teacher. BUSD Transportation will receive transportation requests from Special Ed staff to process.

Bikes

If your child is riding their bike, they will enter the black gates in the middle of the yard on Rose St. at their designated time. They will lock them against the new addition and proceed to their class.
