Important Phone Calls and Messages
Every now and then, the school or the district will send automated calls to give out important information. If you do not answer the phone, the system will leave a voice message. We ask that you please listen to the entire message before contacting the office inquiring about the call. Most often, you will get all of the info you need from the message and calling the office jams up our phone lines unnecessarily. Thank you for your consideration!
