Drop-off and Pick-Up
ALWAYS PULL AS FAR FORWARD AS POSSIBLE BEFORE STOPPING TO PICK UP OR DROP OFF.
Drop off begins at 7:45 AM. Follow the cones and staff directions. Students will line up outside until 8 AM.
Pick up begins at 3:00 on M/T/TH/F, and at 12:00 on Wednesdays. Call for early pick up. Pull as far forward as possible, filling space in front of you. You may also find a spot to park and wait.
Drive slowly in the neighborhood & watch for pedestrians & bicycles: many of our students walk to and from school.
It is unlawful to be on electronic devices while driving in a school zone
Volunteer Drivers Needed!
Due to the shortage of bus drivers, we need parent drivers more than ever to continue our TREKs and adventures. If you are willing to be a driver, please complete the form on the ASD website (linked here) as soon as possible and provide Sylvia with: driver's license, registration, and proof of insurance. The online form must be submitted to ASD 7-10 days prior to driving students.
MAP Testing
MAP Testing will begin next week. All students will take the reading MAP test on Tuesday August 30th and the math MAP test on Thursday September 1st. Please ensure your student gets plenty of rest the night before and eats a hearty breakfast to best prepare for the test.
Lunch at STrEaM
We do not have a lunch program or lunchroom: students must bring a sack lunch. Lunch is generally outdoors unless the weather is prohibitive. We keep emergency lunches on hand, and ask for support with providing these: LUNCH DONATIONS
Registration and Enrollment
We have open seats available in 6th grade. Students who refer a new student receive a STrEaM hoodie if that student is accepted! Please refer interested families to call us. #ExplorersWanted!
Quyana!
