Updates:
End of Quarter:
It is hard to believe we are approaching the half way mark of this school year! The second grading period and first semester both end this Friday, January 12. Please review Renweb with your child this week before grades are finalized, and connect with a teacher if you have specific questions or concerns. Student's report cards will be sent the afternoon on Wednesday, January 17th.
Morning Drop Off Procedures:
Please keep in mind, if you drop your child off in the morning, we do not open the front doors until 7:30am. Additionally, we do have a brief recess outside many days. Please remind your child to bring a jacket when possible to stay warm :)
Dismissal Procedures:
Our school day dismisses at 2:50pm, and buses are dismissed at 2:55pm. If your child is a car rider, please make sure his/her ride is arranged in a timely manner. Students should not be playing outside on playground equipment from other schools or walking through the hallways inside the building unsupervised after school hours. If a student is participating in an afterschool club, practice, or event, they need to go directly to that location at dismissal from the school day.
Student Valuables:
Students are encouraged not to bring items of significant value to school. The school cannot be responsible for their safekeeping and will not be liable for loss or damage to personal valuables such as jewelry, expensive clothing, electronic equipment (cell phones/ earbuds).
Absenteeism:
If your child will be absent due to illness, please call the office. As a reminder, a student is responsible for any missing work accrued during an absence from school. Students are responsible for collecting any make-up work from teachers and arranging a timeline to complete this work with each teacher.
Reminders:
