School Transitions

We hope the first couple of weeks of transitioning back to school have gone well for your children and your family.  There is always lots to remember, particularly if you have multiple children, and or more than one school to deal with. This is where routines become our friends. Children, as we know, respond very well to routines, and the quicker they can settle into new ones, the better for everyone. Here are a few quick reminders about some of our routines that we hope will help establish some new routines quickly.


Bell Times

Morning - 9:05   Flex Entry, students may come inside if they choose to

Supervision begins at 9:05. There is no supervision inside or outside prior to this time


Afternoon - 3:47 Buses are loaded and pull out at 3:57. There is no supervision

After this time. If you are picking up, please have an established meeting place close to your child’s entry and exit door.

While our office staff can help with general questions around transportation, most of the information you are looking for can be found on the CBE Transportation Page. Things like registering for the bus, bus stops, pickup and drop off times are things that are specific to your child and can be found online.


Pick Up & Drop Off

With almost 650 students, pick up and drop off time can get very busy on the street and in our crosswalks and on. Please pay attention and only park in designated areas. Please do not pick up or drop off students in our parking lot. With staff parking, special needs buses, deliveries and maintenance vehicles, it becomes a very dangerous place for students.
