Early Dismissal
All schools will dismiss one hour early.
Triad High School Student Dismissal on Exam Days - 12/19 and 12/20
We anticipate a high volume of parents picking up students at 12:27 PM on exam days (12/19 and 12/20) due to high school students being dismissed early at 12:27 PM. School buses will pick up at 2:10 PM on 12/19 and 1:10 PM on 12/20, and lunch will be available.
We kindly ask parents to arrive no earlier than 12:40 PM on 12/19 and 12/20. This allows student drivers to leave campus first, creating space in the parking lot for parent pick-up. At 12:40, parents will be directed to park in the B parking lot so that students can walk to their car so that everyone can exit promptly.
Parents arriving before 12:40 PM will be directed around the back of the school and asked to wait until 12:40 PM before picking up their students. If you arrive earlier than 12:40, you will be directed around the building.
Following this procedure will help minimize delays and improve traffic flow. We appreciate your understanding, cooperation, and patience when dealing with the high traffic volume at pick-up times on Thursday and Friday. Thank you!
Thank you to Will Brotherton and Triad's Student Council for organizing this month's Board of Education report.

National Special Education Day - Tomorrow marks 20 years since the reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) & 50 years of Education for All Handicapped Children Act (EHA). Before 1975, only 1 in 5 children with disabilities accessed education. Now, IDEA ensures free, appropriate education for all students with disabilities from birth to 21. #TriadTogether
