**Reminder: The school day, from start to finish, is vital for the proper educational development of learning for each child. Stafford begins each school day at 7:50 a.m., and students are expected to be in the school building by this time. If a student comes into the building after 7:50 a.m., they will be marked tardy and receive a tardy slip to enter class. On the other side of utilizing the full school day of learning, is early pick-ups. Any time a child is picked up before the end of the school day, which is 3:30 p.m., the early pick up will be recorded.
