Now Seeking Kindergarten Students for September 2023!
Preschool Registration
Registration for our 3-year-old and 4-year-old preschool programs is now open. Please note that students in our preschool programs must be fully toilet-trained. The PK-3 program runs each morning from 9:00 - 11:30AM, and the PK-4 program runs each afternoon from 12:30 - 3:00PM. Each program only accepts a limited number of enrollments, and registration is first-come first-served. Please see the attached registration form for full details or visit our website for registration and preschool information by clicking here.
Emergency Notifications
- Auto-calls & text messages via K12alerts (enrollment is required; please contact the main office if you did not previously complete the Google Form to receive these alerts);
- Pop-up alerts posted to our district website
- Email notification from the Superintendent (sent to "Guardian 1" from Genesis)
- Announcements via our district Facebook and Instagram accounts
Delayed Openings
If our school opens with a delay, our arrival schedule for K-6 students shifts by 90-minutes. Therefore, student drop-off will be from 10:00 - 10:15 (if your child takes the bus and, for example, typically is picked up at 8:10 then you should expect the bus at approximately 9:40).
For preschool students, the delayed opening schedule is as follows:
- AM Program will run 10:30 - 12:15
- PM Program will run 1:15 - 3:00

Student Birthday Celebrations
- Birthday treats can be purchased directly from our cafeteria using the order form attached to this newsletter. To ensure the cafeteria has ample supply of the treats you'd like to order, we ask that the form is submitted at least two weeks prior to when you'd like the treats to be given out.
- You may send in treats for your child; however, ONLY prepackaged and sealed products are permitted. Due to a number of food allergies throughout the student population, we can only allow prepackaged and sealed products so that the ingredients list can be reviewed by our school nurse prior to any treats being given out. DO NOT send in any homemade items or loose items such as doughnuts or soft pretzels.
- Whether purchased from the cafeteria or sent in as a prepackaged & sealed product, all birthday treats will be given out during the student lunch periods.
