Dear CSPES Families,
We hope this message finds you well. As a rapidly growing school community, we continually adjust our procedures to ensure efficient and smooth operations for everyone at Chesapeake Science Point Elementary. We want to share some important updates and reminders from the Main Office to help enhance our processes and maintain a safe environment. Please take a few moments to review the following:
Early Dismissal Cut-Off Time
Early dismissals will end at 1:40 p.m.. To minimize disruptions, please ensure any necessary pick-ups occur before this time.
Repeated Late Pick-Ups
If your child has more than three late pick-ups from school, you will be invited to a meeting to address any challenges and find solutions.
After-School Activity Late Pick-Ups
For students in after-school activities or clubs, more than three late pick-ups will result in ineligibility to participate in these programs. Please help us by ensuring prompt pick-up from all after-school activities.
Lost and Found Donations
Items in our lost and found that are not school uniform clothing (such as lunch boxes, t-shirts, books, water bottles) will be donated on the first of each month. Please encourage your child to check the lost and found if they are missing any belongings.
Event Registration and ID Pre-Scan
To help with event security, you must pre-scan your government-issued ID before any event that requires a printed badge. Larger events will require registration via a Google form, and there will be a registration deadline. If you miss the deadline, you will not be permitted to enter the building for that event. Please watch for a confirmation email after registering.
Thank you for your cooperation and support as we make these adjustments to serve our growing community. If you have any questions, please contact the Main Office.
