We are seeing a rise in toys that are leading to a distraction in the classroom.

Additionally, cell phone/ smart watch usage is not permitted at school. We have a lot of students using their devices during school. In a time of high alert, we completely understand the need for students to have phone devices, but please note that these items are not allowed during the school day. If you need to contact your child, please call the main office for support.
