Supervision begins at 8:00 AM outdoors (students go into the gym in inclement weather). Classrooms open at 8:15 AM and classes start at 8:25 AM. Please do not drop students off before 8:00 AM, and pick up by 4:00 PM (Monday – Thursday) or 12:30 PM (Friday) unless arrangements have been made with a supervising staff member.

Lunch

Students bring their own lunch and eat in their homeroom classroom (JP – Grade 6) or the designated classroom lunch area (Grades 7 – 12). A hot lunch is offered on some Thursdays and announced to families in advance. Please do not send pork, shellfish or caffeinated beverages; school-sponsored functions are vegetarian.

Transportation

There is no bus service: families drop off and pick up at the school within the times above, and some families arrange carpools among themselves. Parents collecting a child before the end of the school day sign the sign-out sheet in the office first. Students who drive park in the designated parking lot during school hours.
