Being on time sets the foundation for a successful school day! Arriving before the bell gives students the chance to settle in, organize their materials, and start the day focused and ready to learn. Regular, punctual attendance helps build strong routines and ensures students don't miss out on important morning instructions or social connections with peers.

To help jumpstart your morning, we invite all students to arrive a little early and enjoy a free breakfast before school begins!

School Start Times:

Grades K–8: 8:05 AM

Grades 9–12: 8:10 AM

Join us early for breakfast and help your student start their school day nourished, prepared, and on time!

GO INDIANS!

He regularly answers challenging questions, explains his thinking, and helps classmates understand difficult concepts. He is attentive, respectful, and engaged every day.
