Picture Day Information for Virtual Learning Students
We have the following time slots set aside for virtual students who wish to come and have their picture made on Picture Day November 13.
8:00 – 8:30 AM
or
1:30 – 2:00 PM
If you want your child to have their picture taken, you will pull up to the front door and have your child enter while you stay in the car. A staff member will let your child in and check their temperature prior to taking the picture. Once their photo has been taken, the student will return to their car. We will let parents know when the photo packages are delivered to the school.
Please sign the Student Code of Conduct and Discipline!
Clothes Needed for Clinic
The clinic desperately needs boys and girls pants. All sizes are welcome! Thank you in advance!
New Procedures for Dropping Student(s) Items
Parents - if you are dropping items for you student, please know there is a new system. There will be a cart in the entrance area – between the 2 sets of doors. Once you indicate the reason for your visit, you will enter the front door and follow the instructions on the cart so you can drop off your item(s). NOTE: Please be reminded that due to safety and wellness reasons, we are not accepting any group treats at this time.
All items (lunches, snacks, coats, etc.) must be dropped off by 10:00 am
