Principal NoteLobos Family,

STRIVE Prep - Federal is  excited to announce updated start and end times for the 2022-2023 school year! The school day will begin at 8:15 am and end at 3:15 pm,  Monday through Friday. We believe that maintaining the same bell schedule throughout the week best serves our students and their families. Additionally, know that the STRIVE Prep - Ruby Hill bell times will be 8:00 am - 3:00 pm, Monday through Friday. As always, I encourage you to contact the front office directly if you have any questions or concerns. 

Somos Lobos!
