Welcome Parents/Guardians,

On behalf of the entire staff, I would like to welcome you and your student to Stevenson Elementary School.

Our first day of school is on Wednesday , August 2, 2023 and instruction begins at 8:00 AM. All students will enter the school at the gate closest to the parking roundabout. To help ensure the safety of students in the parking lot area, students should only exit the vehicle after it pulls up to the drop-off sign in the roundabout.

Breakfast will be served in the cafeteria from 7:30 AM to 7:55 AM. At 7:45 AM, students will be released from the cafeteria to the playground so they can socialize and play. Teachers will pick up students from the playground at 7:55 AM in order to start the academic day at 8:00 AM. To help ensure school safety, only students and school personnel are allowed to be in the cafeteria or on the playground. As a reminder, all visitors must be “buzzed in” through the front office gate and are required to sign-in.

The school day ends at 2:30 PM on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Early release days are on Wednesday and dismissal at 1:00 PM. Below is our dismissal procedure:

• Kindergarten and family dismissal will take place at the parking roundabout.

• 1st and 2nd grade students will exit the school at the 11th Street gate by the flagpole

• 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students will exit the school at the 12th Street gate near the basketball court

We kindly ask that students be picked up promptly at dismissal time. To help ensure school safety, parents/guardians are required to wait outside the school gates when students exit the campus.

To stay notified about school news and events, please follow our Facebook page and school website. Updates will also be shared via the phone dialer system and the school marquee. Please make sure your contact information remains current with the school front office at all times.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the front office and we will be happy to assist you. Thank you and I look forward to working together and having a successful school year.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Fimbres

Principal
