- Count Day: Our count day will be next week, October 4th. It would be great if your child(ren) would be in school that day. Thanks!
- Picture Retakes: Picture retakes will be on Tuesday, October 17. Please let your child's teacher know if they are getting retakes or need pictures. We do have picture forms in the office if you need them. Thanks!
- Parents in the building: For safety reasons, the school is encouraging parents and guardians not to enter the building during school hours (including drop-off time). This is to ensure the security of the students and staff, as well as to maintain a focused learning environment. Parents are welcome to drop off and pick up their children outside the school and can contact the school office if they need to speak with a teacher or administrator. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in keeping our school a safe and productive place for everyone.
- End of Day: Please avoid making phone calls after 2:30 p.m. to the elementary office. This is a hectic time of the day, and delivering messages before the end of the day is challenging. This excludes any emergencies.
- Strive For Five: See the information below from our truancy liaison officer about having less than 5 days absent!
- Carpool Lane: Make sure to pull forward as far as you can to help reduce the congestion in the carpool lane. Also, parents ARE NOT allowed to exit the vehicle in the carpool lane. Thank you for understanding!
- Family Movie Night: Our first family engagement night will be on Thursday, October 26. More details coming soon!
- Popcorn Fridays: Parent/Guardians, popcorn Fridays are back! Students will get a bag of popcorn one Friday of the month (usually the last Friday). We are asking for students to bring in $.25 per month to help offset the cost of the popcorn. This is not mandatory, and we thank you for your help! *Our next Popcorn Friday will be on October 27!
