- Kindergarten through 6th grade classes will operate 8:30-1:35 all week.
- Students enrolled in after school programs (SPARK or Catalyst) must report to their programs at the end of the school day.
- All other students must follow their after school procedures at the 1:35 dismissal (ex: car pick up, bike home, walk home, etc.)
