School Hours
8:50 Doors Open
9:00 Late Bell
4:10 Dismissal
It is so important that your child arrive at school on time. We also ask that you refrain from picking your child up early. By missing as little as 5 - 10 minutes of class, your child is losing valuable learning time! |

Val Jackson Pledge of Success
Today is a new day, a new beginning.
It has been given to me as a new gift.
I can either use it or throw it away.
What I do today will affect me tomorrow.
I cannot blame anyone but myself if I do not succeed.
I promise to use this day to the fullest by giving my best,
realizing it can never come back again.
This is my life and I choose to make it a success.
