Welcome back, Little Rock School District students and staff! 🍎✏️✨ A new year of learning, growth, and success starts today. Let’s make this school year one to remember!
Good Evening Chicot Families! Thanks for your patience as everyone gets accustomed to new routines. We promise...the time required for dismissal will get faster with each day! You'll be amazed at the improvements in time by the end of the week. As a reminder, K-5 families will use the last entrance behind the playground for arrival and dismissal. In the morning, only families walking students inside should enter the main parking lot. Thanks in advance for your continued partnership to ensure the safety of all! We are looking forward to another great day!
First Day Success! Great students, amazing families, committed volunteers, and an incredible staff all came together to kick-off a great start to the 2024-2025 school year. Special thanks to volunteers from the City of Little Rock, F.L.A.M.E. Little Rock Chapter IABPFF (Little Rock's Black Firefighters Association), and parents for assisting with morning arrival and sharing positive vibes with all. Smiles, music, bubbles, high fives, and hugs were in abundance!
Good Afternoon,
We will begin dismissal at 2:55 pm. Below are important reminders:
1) Families picking up K-5 car riders must use the last entrance behind the school playground. Follow the paw prints along the fence to our main door.
2) If you have a child at our Early Childhood Center (ECC), you may enter the first entrance to pick-up your ECC child and wait at the top of the steps for your elementary student. We will have a designated staff member assigned to call your elementary student(s).
3) Families do not enter the main parking lot or the building during dismissal. All K-5 families must use one of the above ways to pick up a car rider.
4) Please be patient and remain in your vehicle. It will take longer to dismiss the first few days. We promise we will get faster as everyone settles in with the new school year!
Thanks!
