Thank you for working with us to make our school stronger. We are grateful for your support!

Travel Studies
If your student is going to be out of town and absent from school for a minimum of 3 days and a maximum of 14 days, you will need to inform the front office of this absence no later than five school days prior to leaving (the more time the better).
Once the office has been informed, they will email you a travel study contract to electronically sign. The teacher will be notified of the absence and will put together all of the class work they will miss.
Teachers are very busy getting together needed work, so please be patient and give ample time before going on vacation.

Traffic Reminders and Pick-up/Drop-off Procedures
Our local police department has been citing people who are not following traffic laws. On the corner of Eastridge and Twelve Bridges Drive please pull along the curb if you are waiting in the driveline and do NOT block traffic that is trying to make the right hand turn off of Twelve Bridges onto Eastridge (keep the last 20 feet from the corner clear - see picture below).
Below that picture is a message from LPD that they released on Thursday regarding golf carts and NEVs.

If you have people who typically don't pick-up your child coming to get them please have them watch the video or park and walk. Thank you!
