First Day of School - Monday, August 4th

It's time for Back to School!!!

Valentine Elementary School welcomes back all our students and families to our first day of school on Monday, August 4th.

Reminders: School opens at 7:30 am, the front gate closes at 8:00 am and classes begin. Students who arrive after 8:00 am must be escorted into the office by an adult to sign the student into the Tardy Log.

PARKING & DROP OFF ZONE

The drop off zone is still across the street, but now your vehicle will face north, toward the mountain. If students exit from the passenger side, they should cross in front of your vehicle and enter the crosswalk. DO NOT PARK IN THE DROP OFF ZONE.

The parking lot is temporarily at Music Mountain Bible Chapel. If you are signing students in or out, park there, and then come into the office.

DO NOT PARK ALONG THE FENCES ON EITHER SIDE OF THE SCHOOL ZONE.

BUS STOPS & PICKING STUDENTS UP

School dismissal begins at 3:20 pm. Be at school before this time if you are picking a student up from the school. Stay in your car in the Pick Up Zone - DO NOT PARK IN THE PICK UP ZONE.

If you are changing a student's transportation from riding the bus to being picked up, you must call the office to make this change before 2:30 pm. All staff members, including office staff, are unavailable to make transportation changes between 2:30 pm - 3:20 pm.

Students are only permitted one bus stop designation. Any request to change a bus stop must be filled out on the Bus Stop Change Form at least one day before the change is requested to go into effect. Bus Stop Change Forms are available in the office and on the school website, www.valentineaz.net.

If you have questions or need further information, contact the school office at 928-769-2310.
