It's been a busy two weeks of school, but our youngest Falcons are working hard to brighten the hallways with their fabulous work. Check out their torn paper art and their back-to-school picture book inspired art. Keep SOARing Falcons!

Drop Off & Pick Up Changes

Please read this information carefully. Last school year, we made several adjustments to our arrival and dismissal procedures, and we will continue refining them this year in partnership with the York-Poquoson Sheriff's Office. Our goal is to safely get the greatest number of students to and from school in the shortest amount of time.



One of our biggest challenges is ensuring school buses can enter and exit campus on time. Each bus carries 60–70 students, and when buses are delayed by parent traffic, dozens of students arrive late to school or home later than expected. Keeping Siege Lane clear helps all of our students.

The building just isn’t the same without you in it. We can’t wait to see our Falcon Fam back where they belong! 💙

Welcome home, Falcons! Let’s make this year one to remember! 🦅✨
