A few housekeeping notes ...
At the start of the school year, we ask that all families take a moment to review the school handbook and familiarize yourself with its contents.
Walkers and car riders should arrive at school no earlier than 7:45 a.m. Our school day begins promptly at 7:55 a.m. and any student arriving after this time will be marked tardy for the day. If you are dropping off after 7:55 a.m., please walk your child into the building and sign them in.
Please remember how important good attendance is for your student’s academic well-being. If your child is going to be absent, please report this to the school office.
Kindergarten physicals and vision exams are due to the School Nurse by October 16, 2019. Also, Kindergarten and second grade students need a dental exam by May 15, 2020. Please send your exam forms to the nurse as soon as they are completed. All district health forms are available on our website at ksd140.org.
Although we love our furry friends, please remember that dogs and other pets are not allowed on school property during arrival and dismissal times.
Our first Half Day Institute will be on Thursday, September 19th. Click here to view the school hours for these half days.
Keep in Touch!
I encourage you to visit ksd140.org throughout the school year for key events and information pertaining to our school and the District. As always, please don't hesitate to contact me if you need assistance. My door is always open.
Once again, welcome to the 2019-20 school year. I am honored to serve as your principal.
Respectfully,
Mrs. Sandy Hutchinson
Principal
