End of School Year Information
WHERE WILL YOUR CHILD(REN) ATTEND SCHOOL NEXT YEAR?
If you are moving or your child will be attending another school next year, please send a note or call the school office (715-359-2417) to notify us of your intentions. This information is needed for us to plan next year’s classes.
• LUNCH ACCOUNT BALANCES: Any money left in a student’s lunch account will be
carried over to the next school year. If a student is transferring to another school within the D.C. Everest District, the balance will transfer with them. All negative balances need to be paid by June 4th.
• Please check out our lost & found for missing clothing. Any items remaining after June 4th will be given to a local charity.
• Lamers Bus Company also has many articles of clothing which have been left on buses throughout the school year. If you’d like to check out their “lost & found”, you can stop by their office which is located at 3805 Concord Avenue, Weston. All items remaining after June 4 will be discarded.
• Homeroom assignments for the 2021-22 school year will be made over summer. To retain needed flexibility, we wait until the end of summer when most new students have registered and we are certain about the number of teachers we need at each grade level. Experience shows that by delaying notice of the classroom assignments, we can better staff the building and avoid reassigning students to different teachers. A letter will be sent to students in mid-August informing them of their homeroom teacher.
• Lamers has requested that if your child is to be picked up or dropped off at an address other
than your home address, a form requesting this change needs to be filled out as soon as possible and submitted to them. This request needs to be submitted yearly and does not carry over from one year to the next. Forms are available in the school office, on our district webpage, or from Lamers.
