Remote Families
There is a new time for packet pick-up. It will still be every other Wednesday at Central Elementary, but the new time will be 11:30-1:00. We are changing it so it will be the same time as the new food pick up time.
Parking Lot Procedures
In order to keep everyone safe, we ask that you join the pick up line and stay in your car. We will bring your child to you. We also ask that you pull forward when you can so that the cars on the street aren't blocking traffic.
