Transportation Changes and Dismissal
 

Parents/Guardians,

Our primary concern is for the safety of all students who attend Apollo Elementary School.  Therefore, in an effort to get your child(ren) to their after-school destination in a safe and timely manner, we are asking for your assistance with a couple of dismissal items.

1.  If you need to change dismissal plans during the day, please call the Apollo office at 316-794-4090 NO LATER THAN 3:30 pm with the change.  The office staff will inform the teacher of this change.  While emailing the teacher is a great additional step, calling the main office is important since a teacher may not see your email in time for dismissal due to an absence or simply because he/she is working with your child.
2. Students who are after-school car riders will be dismissed at 3:55 pm.  These students will be escorted by school staff to the loading zone at the back (east side) of the building.  Parents/guardians of car riders are asked to arrive as close to 3:55 pm as possible to pick up their child(ren).  Any student not picked up by 4:01 pm will be placed on the school bus to be taken home.  This does not apply to our out-of-district students.

Thank you for your cooperation.  By working together we can ensure the safety of our students as well as provide positive role models of cooperation, patience and teamwork for them at all times.
