Early Student Pick-up: Please do not pick-up children between 2:45 and 3:20pm.

We respect that some appointments or obligations will require you to pick-up your child(ren) early from school. If you have an appointment and you must pick up your child early, please expect delays and please come before 2:45 pm. In the spirit of safety, our dismissal process involves all staff and it is very difficult to have staff get a student early from their classroom and bring them to the office between 2:45 and 3:20 pm. Please do not pick-up children between 2:45 and 3:20pm. This greatly affects our safe and efficient dismissal process. We do not have extra staff to easily get students from class prior to our 3:20 dismissal. Thank you for your continued support. Go Roadrunners!

Roadrunner Red Fridays

Every Friday, we encourage our students, staff and families to wear Roadrunner spirit wear and/or red to celebrate being a Roadrunner. Of course we also have some fun with it and add a little competition. Each Friday, we select the 3 classes with the most Roadrunner red spirit. We select one winning class to represent grades (k-2), (3-5) and McGrath. Each winning class proudly gets a Roadrunner flag displayed outside of their classroom for the following week to show off their Roadrunner spirit. Don't forget to wear your red on Fridays.
