COVID-19 Notification: Please let us know
If your child is sick or has been exposed to someone who has tested positive for COVID-19, please keep your child home and notify your school. This is very important as we continue to work together to keep schools safe and our students in the classroom. With winter coming, the flu season upon us, and more opportunities to gather with friends and families, the chances of spreading viruses including COVID-19 increases. One exposure to a classroom can impact many including students and staff who may be more vulnerable to illness. Let’s continue to stay vigilant so all students can stay at school learning together.
Nutrition Services
MEALS ARE FREE FOR STUDENTS THIS SCHOOL YEAR!
ONE PER STUDENT! One breakfast and one lunch please.
Families who might qualify still need to fill out a Free/Reduced meal application each year - helps with Title 1, P-EBT, and other funding for your school and for families.
Supply chain issues still exist. However, we have ordered tamales, pupusas, breaded fish, scones, bbq chicken teriyaki, popcorn orange chicken, and other fun things to come...we have begun to offer multiple choices at the secondary sites! Elementary is coming next.
