We kindly ask parents again this year to consider staying outside the school building to keep our children safe. Usually, we would encourage everyone to come into the building so that we can see you, talk to you, and build strong relationships. However, with the increase in the spread of COVID again, we want to keep our children in the building as safe as possible. If you would like to talk to a teacher, you may enter the building to speak to a teacher if you follow the same protocols (health form, masks and social distancing) as the students and staff.

For the reasons listed above, parents are asked to drop off and pick up their children at the front steps of the school. That means drop-offs can be done at the glass doors at the main entrance and pick-ups for most can be done from your cars.

For drop-off, we understand that in the first days of school parents of younger children (PK-2) may need to bring their children to their classroom. That is OK. We do want you to start dropping off your children at the glass door as soon as you feel it is comfortable for you and your child.

When picking up your children at the end of the day, please proceed to the front steps to tell Principal Breitkreutz who you are here to pick up. You may do this from your car. When the bell rings at 3 pm, the students will come out either the glass doors or the recess doors and proceed to your vehicle. PK parents are asked to please pick up their children from the steps directly in front of the glass doors.

Thank you for your efforts to keep our children as safe as we can!

It is with great sadness that I’m letting you know that in the past month, unforeseen circumstances have arisen in my life and I’ve decided to leave Faith Lutheran School, with my last week being the week of September 13th. While any decision to leave this amazing school, children and coworkers has been hard, personal reasons and circumstances have made the decision to leave not easy, but necessary.

An email went out 9/9 to all families who still need to return the parent handbook agreement. If you have not done so already, please return your signed parent handbook agreement to the office. We ONLY need one signed agreement per family.

Thank you!

Pictures will be taken on Thursday, September 16th, 2021. School pictures will be used for the yearbook. Pictures will be taken of students and staff. An order envelope went home last week. Please return the envelope to the teacher even if you are NOT ordering anything because we use this to make photo ID's for each child. Monday-Tuesday preschool student pictures will be taken on retake day which is Tuesday, October 19th.
