2025/26 Registration opens on April 1st. Registration will be fully online this year and you can use the link above to begin the process. Our Registrar, Danielle Harrington, will be on campus from 7:30 am to 4:00 pm on April 2nd to support families if needed. We will not be giving campus tours on this date.Â
-CROSSWALKS: We have many crosswalks on and around campus. You MUST STOP anytime a child or adult is standing or walking in a crosswalk. Please do not ever try and drive across the crosswalk when people are there.
-ARRIVAL: The gate from Block House Creek Dr. will be closed every day around 7:29am. School starts and side doors lock at 7:30am and our staff must get to classrooms ASAP. If you get to the gate once it is closed, please re-route and drive to the front doors of the school. At 7:30am, you are able to drive right up to the front and drop your student at the front doors. Please plan to have your student at school prior to 7:30am so they can be in their seat ready to learn by 7:30am.
-DISMISSAL: The drive entrance to the back parking lot off of Creek Run Dr. becomes EXIT ONLY at 2:30pm every day. Vehicles will not be allowed to turn in after 2:30pm each day.
-We have a no smoking policy in our facility and we ask for your help in keeping our campus smoke/vape free anytime you are on school grounds.
Thank you for your help in keeping our Bears safe!
