Housekeeping Hours
We will offer housekeeping hours again this year. You may come to school early to pay fees, find out who your teacher is, and deposit lunch money. You get all of your "housekeeping" done and can spend your time at the Blast from 5-7 meeting your teacher, checking out the new spiritwear, and catching up with friends.
This is NOT a mandatory step...it's for our parents who only have a short amount of time the evening of the 8th to meet the teacher only or for parents who don't want to stand in line on the 8th to find out teacher names.
This year we've extended our Housekeeping Hours to both Wednesday the 7th and Thursday the 8th from 7:30am-11:00am. Please note that we will be operating on a smaller staff due to teacher training so lines could be longer at key times, but the length of time we are open is 5 times what it was last year so hopefully we'll get you in and out with all the info you need quickly.
Please note the building will not be available for tours during housekeeping hours as our custodial staff is planning for the evening's event.

School Fees?
School fees are $55 per child. These fees are distributed to departments across the building and cover items such as student agendas, workbooks, supplies and materials for the unified arts team, copy machine paper, technology licenses and subscriptions for students, and instructional materials to be used during the 2013-2014 school year by teachers.
Reduced fees are available for those who qualify for the federal reduced school lunch program.
