HDES Bulldog Bulletin

Welcome Back!

I hope everyone enjoyed the week of school vacation. I'd like to remind parents who pick up their children at dismissal that we are implementing a late pick up time effective Monday, Feb. 25. Many of you have agreed to arrive at 3:15 instead of the 3:00 time, which will help with traffic issues with the busses and parking. A friendly reminder to the parents who need to pick up children at 3:00, please be sure to exit school grounds immediately after pick up, as this will open parking for the 3:15 pick ups.

Thank you for your assistance with this new dismissal change. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to call or email me.
