LATE ARRIVAL AND EARLY DISMISSAL:
If your student is arriving to school late or leaving early this year, we are asking that you use the QR codes posted on the front doors. Scan the code with your phone camera or QR app and answer a few brief questions. We are notified of your response and will bring your student out to you.

If your child will not be in school due to illness, travel, appointments or any other reason, please remember to call the attendance line at 313-432-4401 and leave a brief message.
LUNCH:
There will NOT be microwaves available for heating lunches this year. Please be sure your student is able to open their own food items. Bring a water bottle if possible.
