A Note From the Ponderosa Staff:
We are looking forward to the first day of school and want you to be aware of a few details:
• The first day of school is Wednesday, September 5th! The first bell rings at 8:55 and school starts at 9:00. We will have supervision after 8:30, so please do not drop off your children before then. School ends at 3:30.
• There will be no office staff in the building on Tuesday, September 4th.
• Starting on September 12, there will be an early dismissal time of 2:00 pm on Wednesdays.
• Kindergarten staggers their start date; half of the students arrive on Wednesday and half on Thursday. Friday, September 7th, will be the first full day for all kindergartners. Wednesday dismissals after September 12th, will be at 11:00 for the morning kindergarten and at 2:00 PM for the afternoon session.
• If you are driving your child to school, or picking them up afterward, please do not park in the bike lane on Purcell. You may park on the West side of Purcell, but please walk your child to the crosswalks located on Purcell if you are crossing the street to get to the school. Be aware that the intersection of Empire and 18th will remain closed through October, which means there will be extra traffic on Purcell in front of the school.
• If you drive into the school parking lot to pick up your child, please do not park your car and leave it unattended along the curb in front of the school. Park in the designated parking spots if you are coming into the building. Do not stop to drop off or pick up your child in the crosswalk area directly in front of the school. This area must remain open for pedestrian traffic. Vehicles can get very backed up in this loop, so it is imperative that everyone follows these simple guidelines.
It’s going to be a great year, thank you for all your support and encouragement as we work together to help our children reach their full potential!
Sincerely,
The Staff of Ponderosa
