Parking Lot Safety and Speed Limit Reminders
As you are walking or driving in the parking lot at the school, please be aware of your surroundings. Our number one concern is student safety. We do not want anyone getting hurt.
REMINDER: Using School Dismissal Manager for end of day changes
For your convenience and ours, Machetanz Elementary utilizes an on-line dismissal management system. It is dependable, easy-to-use, and can be updated by parents and guardians from the convenience of their smart phones, tablets, and PCs.
Once you register your account you can make transportation changes as late as 3:00 PM
All parents and guardians should have gotten an email last Friday about School Dismissal Manager. If you did not please contact Terry in the front office. We need you to double check the default setting for your child on how they get home each day. This default is how we will dismiss your student(s) daily unless you make a change in the system.
ALL transportation changes must be made through the School Dismissal Manager.
Click on the icon below to access School Dismissal Manager:

Students will go home based on what it says in school dismissal manager. Please make sure it is correct.
If you have questions, contact the Front Office for more information.

Do you want to volunteer at Machetanz but don't always know how you can help? We have created a Facebook Group called Friends of Machetanz where teachers and school staff will post our needs and parents will know how they can help. Search for the Group: Friends of Machetanz to get started!
Allergies at school
We would like to encourage all families to bring nonfood items to share with your students classmates rather than cupcakes or other food treats this year. In doing this, all students can celebrate birthdays with their classmates without feeling left out due to allergies.
Thanks you for your support and understanding!
Where's my bus?
Box Tops Changes. There's now an APP!
There is no more clipping and sending your box tops to the school. You can scan your receipt and Box top purchases are automatically recognized. The school will get credit immediately.
If you still see traditional box tops on items we can get double credit until they are completely phased out. So scan and Clip!
This is a free and easy way to have money sent to Machetanz twice a year. We appreciate the support!
