Additional Information

School reminders For the safety of our students Please use the lower level of the parking lot to drop off and pick up your child(ren) each day. We are still having drivers dropping off and picking up on the upper level. Thank you for your cooperation. If there are changes in pick-up arrangements, please call the main office by 1:00 p.m. Colder Weather Please send your student to school with outdoor clothing. All students play outside, so it’s important that they come ready for colder days . If you feel like your child needs to stay inside, please send a physician’s note to the classroom teacher. The teacher then can direct the child to the office during recess. Lost and Found The Lost and Found is located in the cafeteria. If your child is missing an item, please make sure to check in the lost and found for it. Every few weeks, students are encouraged to check for any missing items.  At the end of each semester, unclaimed items are donated to a local charity.

Maintaining open lines of communication between the school and home is vital to achieve the common goal of providing the best quality education to every student. Log in the Skyward to check your child's progress.
