Picture Re-Take Day is Thursday, Jan. 21st We will be having picture re-takes on Thursday for those who were unable to take their fall pictures. This was originally scheduled for December, but due to distance learning, we were unable to make it happen. If you are on distance learning currently and need an alternative for re-takes please contact our office. | Short Term Absence (Sickness, Isolation, or Quarantine) We are changing our short term absence procedures. If your child is sick, please call the office. Your child will be marked as excused for the time period they are out due to illness. Our teachers will coordinate with parents to provide materials to work on during the absence and the best time to pick that up. Please call our office for more information. | ELAC and DELAC Our School Site English Language Advisory Committee meeting is on Tuesday, from 9am-9:45am. The purpose of the committee is to seek out input on how we can better serve our English Langauge Learners. Our District English Language Advisory Committee Meeting is on Wednesday from 8:30am-9:30am. Both meetings are virtual and the links can be found on the school website calendar as well as the district website calendar. |
