Friendly Reminders:

  • Students are not to have cell phones or iWatches in class. They may store them in their backpack during the school day and access them at dismissal.
  • There are a lot of end of year excitement and activities. Please refrain from sending to school items that are home-baked or any food items in goodie bags. These will not be distributed to ensure the safety of students and ensure parents have knowledge of the food their child is consuming.
  • Please plan extra time to park and check in at the office with a valid ID for all end of year events, unless directed differently.
  • Unless specifically noted, younger siblings are not allowed at classroom events.
