💡 Reminders

  • Elementary morning drop-off begins at 8:55 am (if your child is not in Morning Program); please do not have students here before then as we have no campus supervision.
  • Any time you are waiting in the pick-up area for students, please turn your car off. DO NOT LET YOUR CAR IDLE FOR LONG PERIODS. We are trying to keep students and staff healthy and car exhaust fumes are not safe.
  • When walking onto campus, make sure you park in the parking lot; do not leave cars unattended in the driving lanes during drop-off and pick-up times.
  • All SELS visitors, classroom volunteers, chaperones and drivers on fieldwork MUST check in at the office to receive a badge. You need to bring your driver’s license with you. Feel free to ask anyone in the office if you need assistance with this process.
  • Final Reminder: Please register for the Free and Reduced Meals Program if you think you might qualify! ALL families accepted in the Free and Reduced Lottery MUST apply, even if lunches are free or you do not plan to use services. Here is the link to apply
