We are so excited to welcome all of our KIPPsters for the first day of school! As a reminder, classes begin promptly at 7:30 AM.

Please review these important first-day reminders:

Building Access & Safety: To ensure student safety, family members are not permitted to walk into the building or es**rt students to their classrooms.

Arrival & Timing: Doors open at 7:10 AM. Please plan to arrive early, and thank you in advance for your patience as we welcome everyone to campus.

Parking Etiquette: Please do not park in nearby business lots or block our neighbors' driveways during drop-off and pick-up.

Supply Drop-Off: If you need to drop off school supplies, please bring them to the table set up at the front kiosk next to the flagpole. Kindly label the items with a Post-it note secured with tape, and our team will ensure they are delivered to the correct classroom.

Thank you for your support in making the first day smooth and safe for all our scholars!

Estimadas familias:

¡Estamos muy emocionados de dar la bienvenida a todos nuestros estudiantes de KIPP para el primer día de clases! Les recordamos que las clases comienzan puntualmente a las 7:30 a. m.

Por favor, revisen estos recordatorios importantes para el primer día:

Acceso al edificio y seguridad: Para garantizar la seguridad de los estudiantes, no se permite que los familiares entren al edificio ni acompañen a los alumnos hasta sus aulas.

Llegada y horario: Las puertas se abren a las 7:10 a. m. Les pedimos que planifiquen llegar temprano y les agradecemos de antemano su paciencia mientras damos la bienvenida a todos al plantel.

Normas de estacionamiento: Por favor, no se estacionen en los estacionamientos de negocios cercanos ni bloqueen las entradas de vehículos de nuestros vecinos durante los horarios de llegada y salida.

Entrega de útiles escolares: Si necesita entregar útiles escolares, por favor llévelos a la mesa ubicada en el quiosco de la entrada, junto al asta de la bandera. Les rogamos que etiqueten los artículos con una nota adhesiva (tipo Post-it) asegurada con cinta; nuestro equipo se encargará de entregarlos en el aula correspondiente.

¡Gracias por su apoyo para lograr que el primer día transcurra de manera fluida y segura para todos nuestros estudiantes!
