Dismissal Procedures

  • Cedar Valley Elementary is a 100% ID check campus. 

    At Cedar Valley Elementary, our dismissal procedures are designed with the utmost care and safety in mind. We prioritize the well-being of our students, staff, and the community during this critical transition period. Our dedicated staff is always on hand to assist and guide students as they enter/exit the school premises, and we appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain a secure and efficient dismissal routine.

      Friendly Reminders

        • Please remember that after the tardy bell rings, you will need to come to the front office to sign your student in.
        • Also, remember to bring an ID card when you sign your student out for the day and at dismissal. This is also for anyone you have authorized to pick your student up from school.
        • If your student is a bus rider, please remind them about bus safety and behavior on the bus. Bus safety is a priority and riding the bus is a privilege.
        • School releases promptly at 3:00 p.m. Please ensure you are here on time to retrieve your student.
        • Please do not park in the bus or fire lanes. This is a safety hazard and citations will be given.
