WBE School Hours
|
|
At WBE we work hard to make sure that your child's instructional day is chalk full of learning! Keeping this in mind, please remember that our school hours are from 7:50a.m. - 3:00p.m.
School doors will open at 7:30 a.m. Please do not allow your child to arrive before 7:30 a.m., as the doors are locked and there is no supervision provided until that time ( unless he/she is enrolled in the Extended Day Program). School starts promptly at 7:50 a.m. and every student should be in his/her classroom by then. Students arriving after 8:00 a.m. will be marked tardy. Parents must sign tardy students in to the front office to be issued a pass to enter the classroom.
Breakfast is served from 7:20- 7:50.
