School and District Information
ACCIDENT INSURANCE
Parents may purchase voluntary K-12 student accident insurance through Bollinger Speciality Group. Student Accident Insurance helps ease those concerns by providing benefits for injuries that occur during school hours and or school-sponsored and supervised activities (i.e., athletics, gym class, playground, field trips, JROTC, etc.). With the increasing trend of high deductible plans, and more of the cost share shifting to the insured, Student Accident Coverage has become an even greater tool to bridge the coverage gaps that are inherent in most insurance plans.
ADMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS Board Policy 201
Students must be 5 years old on or before September 1 to enter Kindergarten or six years old on or before September 1 to enter first grade. Please see our registration page for information regarding registering students.

BUS TRANSPORTATION Board Policy 810
Many children in the elementary schools are transported to and from school by bus. Acquainting your child with the bus stop before the school term begins will give your child confidence in traveling to and from the bus stop.
We strongly recommend that kindergarten bus stops have a parent, sibling or designated adult at the stop to receive the student. Please visit our transportation page for more information.
