- 4th Grade– Front of building in the middle of the building
- Please help us keep all students safe by making dismissal changes by 12:00 p.m. each day by phone or with a note. Late dismissal changes sometimes leads to a more chaotic dismissal. Do NOT ask us to make dismissal changes after 12:00 p.m. unless it is an emergency. Our goal is to dismiss all students safely each day. We appreciate your help! Please be sure the office, the transportation office, and your child are all aware of your dismissal preferences.
- Please do NOT enter the bus loop during dismissal time.
- Parents/guardians are not permitted to come down to classrooms during dismissal. If you have a scheduled appointment with your child’s teacher, please come into the office after dismissal and sign in.
- If you have a child at both Pleasant Avenue and Warren Street, please pick up your child at Pleasant Avenue before picking up your child at Warren Street.
Late Arrivals, Early Dismissals & Absences
New York State Education Law requires a written excuse, signed by a parent or guardian, be provided when a student is absent, tardy, or leaving school early. Please send an excuse to school with your child if he/she is tardy or needs to be dismissed early, and on the day your child returns to school after being absent.
Parents/guardians must sign-in/out students arriving late or leaving early.
