• Calling Pre-School Dads- Any father/male guardian of a child ages 3-5 is eligible to participate in a Reading Program for Pre-schoolers that pays $150 while teaching fathers how to engage with young readers. Details found in the link below.

• Dismissal time is 3:30 p.m. While we do offer a short grace period, we ask that you be respectful of our time and pick your child up on time. Picking your child up after 4:00 puts a major strain on our staff and prevents us from picking up our own children. Thank you for your consideration.
• Attendance- Student attendance is one of the strongest indicators of student success. The state of Ohio counts HOURS and NOT DAYS toward truancy. The time your child arrives and leaves school counts toward truancy. Anything above 7 hours per month that a child is absent is considered Chronic Absenteeism. It is extremely important that your child is here for the entire school day. Students are considered TARDY after 8:30.
• We are a uniform school. There will be NO "Dress Down Friday's" this year. Please make sure your child is in khaki bottoms (no Jeans, jogger, leggings, sweatpants). Any solid color polo shirt, tennis shoes, boots or dress shoes (no crocks, sandals or flip flops). Students who come to school and are not in uniform are subject to In School Suspension.
