Please meet us over at Story Elementary TONIGHT to learn more about the campus and see the school. A brief presentation will be held from 4:30-5pm. Afterwards, we'll be able to tour the campus until 6pm.

It is very important that Pre-K going to Kindergarten and 6th graders going to 7th grade get the immunizations noted below. They will NOT be able to start classes next year without them.

Thank you and please let me know if there are any questions or concerns. Pre-K parents and 6th grade parents can send them to me immediately when they are completed up until May 2023.

Want an easy way to connect with your child in a meaningful way?

WATCH D.O.G.S.® is an innovative program being used by schools across America, which helps them to be positively impacted by the committed involvement of fathers and father-figures in their students’ life. The goal is to have these men spend a day a year at the school to be an extra set of eyes and ears as a positive male role model.

WatchDOGS are fathers, grandfathers, uncles, and other father-figures who volunteer for at least one day each year at Rountree. During the day, WatchDOGS help with Specials, play at recess, eat lunch with students, watch the school entrances and hallways, assist with traffic flow and any other assigned activities where they actively engage with not only their own students, but other students as well.

What do I do to become a WATCHDOG:
