Lost and Found
It’s that time of year when jackets will be needed, and jackets will be lost.
If your child is missing a coat/jacket/water bottle, please have them check Lost and Found by the cafeteria!
Lunch Visitor Sign-Up
In order to provide a safe environment for our students and staff, we will limit visitors to 5 per grade level per day and only one visit per month. Each visitor must sign up for a slot. Groups of 2, 3 or more will not be admitted under one slot. Additional visitors be required to remain in the foyer. Limiting visitation to once a month will allow more parents a chance to have lunch with their child(ren). Thank you for your support.
