Thank you!Thanks to our families that make Vaughan such a great place! We live in such a wonderful community with so much support. We thank you for being part of us! |
Morning Arrival ReminderThis is a friendly reminder about our morning arrival procedures to help ensure a smooth and safe start to each school day. Vaughan doors open at 7:15 AM for both car riders and bus riders. If you choose to bring your child to school as a car rider, please build a few extra minutes into your morning routine to allow for a potentially long car line—especially on rainy days, when traffic tends to move more slowly. Remember, the school bus is never late, so riding the bus is a reliable way to ensure students arrive on time. Morning Parking and Traffic Pattern Reminder If you choose to bring your child to school as a car rider, please follow the designated traffic pattern. There is no parking for morning arrival at the end of the building (3rd/4th/5th grade). There are two options for car rider drop off: Thank you for partnering with us to support a calm, on-time start for all students each morning. |
