Richmond County School Calendar:
To view the 2024-2025 School Calendar 2024-2025 Calendar
School Hours:
School hours are 7:25 AM - 2:15 PM
The building is open to receive students at 6:50 AM. Please do not drop students off before this time as there may not be anyone to monitor them.
The end of the school day is 2:15 PM Students who leave school before 2:15 PM will be counted tardy until a doctor's note is received. Early dismissal ends at 1:45 PM. To protect the instructional day of all students, we do not release students early to avoid long lines. Calling into classes to release students early is disruptive to the education of all students in that class. Emergencies and doctor's appointments will be handled on a case by case basis.
Dismissal
For the safety of our students, the front door will be locked from 1:45-2:15 PM. At this time, the entire student body is moving around the building to their dismissal location. Adding more people in the foyer area (adults standing to wait on their students with or without other small children) increases the traffic and is a safety hazard for our current and future Eagles.
What do I do when I arrive at school?
Your GPS will direct you to 42nd Street. This is actually the rear of the school. You want to park in the parking lot on 44th Street. Push the gray button on the door to gain access to the school. Please be sure to have your ID available to present. When you enter the school, go to the front office. An administrative assistant will guide you from there.
How does the school communicate with parents?
