Arrival and Dismissal Procedures
Instruction begins at 7:45 am each morning for all students. If driving to school, please read MRE Traffic Plan (under Policies and Procedures).
All students enter campus through the gates in the upper parking lot. Parents are not permitted to come on campus before school through the gates. Parents must sign in through the office and be expected by the classroom teacher. These gates will be locked promptly at 7:55am each morning. Students arriving after 7:55am must proceed to the attendance clerk with parent for a tardy slip. You will need to park in a designated parking place to walk your child into the office. Please allow plenty of time each morning for traffic to ensure your children are not tardy.
