Every Monday is a “PreK-8 Late Start” for students in preschool through 8th grades. Our preschool program, elementary schools, and middle school utilize this time for professional learning and collaboration. Bus routes for PreK-8th grade students will run later to coincide with the late start time. Dismissal time at the end of the day remains the same.
