School times are 8:55AM-3:10PM. We open our gates at 8:30AM. All students will go through our weapons detection system (just like they did last year). IMPORTANT, please do not drop off your child prior to 8:20AM. There will be NO supervision until that time. At 8:20AM, there will be a staff member outside directing students to line up for entry into our school. Our late bell rings at 8:55AM. We will close our gates promptly at 8:55AM. If you are late, you will be directed to park your vehicle and walk your child into the front office. You must have your ID with you every time you enter our campus. All visitors to Tropic Isles will need to go through our weapons detection system. Please make sure you are in the car line on-time for dismissal, with our new procedures we expect the lines to move much faster.If you are late for dismissal you will need to bring your ID and get your child from the office.
NEW PROCESS FOR CAR RIDERS - PINK CAR TAGS
ALL ESE Self-Contained, Pre-K, Head Start and Siblings will be dropped off and picked up on our North Ramp (located directly beside our main bus ramp). All cars of students in these programs will enter through the gate and proceed to the right. We will have signs posted outside our campus to assist families. This starts on the first day of school. Please check out our Facebook and X(twitter) page for a video of the new car ramp.
Bus Riders
Bus riders will be given a student ID badge for their backpack. This will be scanned on the bus to connect to the Where's the Bus app and provides you with real-time updates on your child's location. Please make sure that this badge stays on your child's bag and notfiy their teachers if you are in need of a replacement.
