Students will be provided time and space to complete homework or use, read, and play with table top materials made available to them until the school day begins or a parent or guardian arrives to pick them up.

Attempted pickups by relatives or family friends not listed in Emergency Contacts will necessitate phone verification which will delay the sign-out process.
