School Fees
Headphones, PLEASE!!
Please help us make sure that every student has a pair of working headphones! This is more important than ever, now that we are back to full capacity, but social distancing in our classrooms! Students are working on independent work during centers, online assessments, and iReady pathways. All of these are best completed with headphones. (We recommend Five Below for reasonably priced, good quality headphones.)
No School ~ Labor Day
BOG - Beginning of Grade Testing
... on the BUS!! Make sure you have a mask with you if you are a Bus Rider in the morning or afternoon!
Attention Car Riders!

This tool has been incredibly beneficial!
