Principal Post
As a reminder,
- The first bell rings and the door opens at 7:10am.
- There is no supervision of children outside the building prior to the doors opening.
- The tardy bell rings at 7:30am.
- Instruction begins at 7:30am.
- Attendance is taken at 8:30am.
It is important to have your student here and in the building by 7:30am ready to learn. Thank you for your help in this matter as we all work together to start each school day off well.

Thank you!!!
Please check out this note from Brittany Farrow, 1st VP of Membership and Committees.
Hello Larkspur Families,
I wanted to let you know about some opportunities for you to become more involved at your student's school. The Larkspur PTA has several committees that you can join and you do not have to be a PTA member to serve on a committee, although we would love for you to join PTA as well!! Please click on the link below to look at the options still available.
Before being allowed into the school to volunteer, you will need to click the link below to become an approved volunteer through LISD if you have not already done so.

Additionally, if you have signed up for a committee, please be on the lookout for an email from the committee chair. This email will contain the planning and coordination of events for each committee.
We truly appreciate all the support you each have already shown our school, our teachers, our students, and our PTA.
Thank you,
Brittany Farrow, 1st VP of Membership and Committees
