Car Line Rules & Reminders


Please remember to follow the KRS car line procedures to ensure we all remain safe and the line moves in an efficient manner. Most importantly, please do not get out of your car while in the carline. Parents and caregivers are to remain in their vehicles and the school staff will make sure that your children are brought over to you.


Please have your children use the rear door on the right of the car, as Kings Road is awfully busy in the mornings and afternoons and we want everyone to stay safe!


Thank you!

Don't Forget to Order Your Child's School Photos!


For the most efficient ordering process, click on the link above, which will take you to Countryside Studios KRS website. There they provide steps to access and purchase photos. (Your child’s “unique passcode” is their student ID number which can be found on Genesis.)


Deadline for photo orders is Monday, October 24th.
