    Early Release

    The School Board of Collier County has approved early release/dismissal days during the 2024-2025 school year.  On each of these days, all students in Collier County Public Schools are dismissed three hours early. Dismissal will occur at 11:50 am.

    Early Pick-Up

    Whenever possible, please schedule your child’s appointments outside of school hours.  However, if you must pick up your child during the school day, please note the procedural guidelines:


    Parents who must sign their children out during the school day must do so through the front office. Children who have dental appointments, doctor appointments, etc. will be called to the office, where they will be officially signed out by the parent or the adult authorized in writing by the parent.  At no time should parents go to the classroom to remove their child as this violates our safety policies.

    Transportation

    Your child’s safety while traveling to and from school is of great importance to us.  To ensure his/her safety, please notify the teacher of the method by which your child will arrive and depart, i.e., walker, biker, car rider, or bus rider.  If it is necessary to change methods (even for a day), you must notify the teacher in writing or your child will travel as previously arranged.

    Monthly Calendar

    Each month your child will be given a calendar. All school happenings for the coming month will be provided on the calendar.  This communication will advise you of special activities and meetings at Poinciana..  Please review it, make note of activities that pertain to your child and keep it handy for reference.

    Thursday Envelope

    Each Thursday, Poinciana students will bring home an envelope filled with their completed work and special notes from the teacher or office.  Reviewing the contents of the envelope with your child each Thursday will keep you informed and let your child know that school is important.  Students are expected to return their Thursday envelope to their teacher on the next school day.
