Accessing the Public LIbrary
Lee County Library is opening for pick up! You can put books on hold and then go to some locations and they will bring them out. The location off Mohawk is one of the locations that is opening in Cape Coral right now. See the link below for more information and directions on how to use this pick up process. Also, Mrs. Gamboa has more information in her Google Classroom.

A note from Mrs. Arroyo...
Bus Transportation Application for 2020-2021 School Year
Parents must complete a separate form for each child in their family that is requesting transportation. Deadline is end of business day (5:00 pm) on June 15, 2020 for guaranteed transportation for the first day of school. If you miss the deadline, transportation cannot be guaranteed for the first two weeks of school.
Fourth Quarter Interims
If parents have NOT already set up an established FOCUS account to view their student information, they will have to get their parent account verified. The verification process may take up to a few weeks. In order to set up a parent account, parents will need the Student ID number, (NOT the Social Security Number). If you do not know your child's Student ID, please reach out to your child's teacher. Teachers will only be sending student ID's to the email account that they have been using with the parent all year.
See the attachment below for details on the Parent FOCUS account verification process.
