Elementary K-3 Campus Information Week of August 9, 2010

School starts this Wednesday, August 11! We are looking forward to a new year with our students at the K-3 Campus. We also look forward to meeting all of our new families joining OCS for the first time! The first day of school can cause a few "jitters", but after the students get into their classroom it only takes a short while before they get right back into the swing of things!


A few reminders: Students may be dropped off in the morning no earlier than 7:00 AM. Breakfast is served from 7:10 AM to 7:35 AM. The bell rings at 7:45 AM. We want everyone to get off to a good start, by being in their classroom BEFORE the 7:45 bell rings. Please make sure your child is at school on time.



In the afternoon, car riders will be dismissed at 2:30 PM. Parents must get out of their car and walk up to the front of the school building to get their child. Children are NOT allowed to roam through the lot looking for their parents car. For the first few weeks we will have a coned off area for Kindergarten students to stand in, to make it easier for parents to find their Kindergarten child.



If your child is a bus rider, make sure you know their bus numbers and send a note with those numbers to school. If you aren't sure which bus your child will ride, you can call the DCPS bus garage at 852-7080.



Only students registered may attend the After School Program. Students in the After School Program must be picked up by 5:30 PM.
