Dear Parents, This letter is to remind you of some calendar dates that impact our kindergarten classes. As stated on the calendar, in order to achieve equity in instructional time, the first five day of Early Release (Sept-Feb) AM students attended school and PM students had no school. For the final five early Release Days (March through June) PM students will attend kindergarten in the morning and AM students will have no school. The five dates are as follows: March 19 April 3 April 15 May 21 Last Day of School Important Considerations: o AM children who do not attend Extended Day will be expected to stay home from school those five mornings o PM students should attend school in the morning and arrive by car or neighborhood bus. Dee Bus will expect to pick these students up at the neighborhood bus stop with the rest of the school population o If your child attends Extended Day on the Early Release Day, the impact is minimal and the day will be much like a regular Early Release Day with dismissal at 12:20 p.m. o Lunch will not be served on those days, so an extra or substantial snack would be a wise idea o There will be no mid-day buses those days. All K students will go to school and go home on neighborhood buses at 12:20 with the rest of the school population Thank you for your attention to this schedule change. Should you have any further questions please contact the school office. Warm regards, Donna Pobuk
