EARLY DISMISSAL PROCEDURES

Students who have appointments after school and need to leave early should be signed out prior to 2 p.m. Remember that signing your child out early counts as an early dismissal for that day, unless you send in a doctor’s excuse. Students may not be signed out between 2:00—2:30 p.m. Students will not be dismissed from the front office, car riders should be picked up in the car line.

TRANSPORTATION CHANGES

Transportation changes will only be accepted from the parent or guardian in writing. Notes can be sent in with your child or emailed to REStransportation@horrycountyschools.net. The email must come from the parent email on file. All changes must be made in writing prior to 1:30 p.m.

CAR RIDER TRANSPORTATION

Our morning drop off line flows smoothly. Please make sure that your child dropped off in time to be in the building by 7:30 in order to not be counted tardy. Thank you families for making sure that your new car rider tag is displayed during pickup! Our pickup line begins at 2:35 pm and has been cleared typically by 2:55 pm. Thank you for being at school on time to pick up your children! Car rider tags are required to pick up students in the car line. If you need extra tags, please stop by the front office with your ID.

BUS TRANSPORTATION

For questions about specific bus stops or times, please contact the North Myrtle Beach Bus Office at (843) 399-8575. Your child’s bus may arrive 10 minutes early or up to 10 minutes late, so please be at the stop accordingly. CD-Kindergarten students are part of our tag program which requires an adult to be at the bus stop in order for CD and Kindergarten students to be let off the bus. Older siblings cannot be responsible for younger siblings in these grades. Please be sure that you have made arrangements so that your child knows who is picking them up at the bus stop in the afternoon. If an older child says that they do not feel comfortable getting off the bus without a parent at the stop, they will be returned to school.
