Principal's Message
We've had a great start to the school year so far. The students are settling into the school routine and getting to know their teacher and classmates.
We are working really hard to keep our parking lot safe and efficient, so if you have not done so already please read the parking lot procedures AND share them with any others who may pick your child up. Also, I want to thank all of you for your efforts in keeping our school safe by checking into the office and getting a visitor's badge if you plan to be out and about in the building. You must wear a badge at all times, even if it before or after school hours if you plan to leave the office area.
Thank you for your continued partnership in making this school year a success!
School Safety Reminders
- While we always welcome parents into the school, if you are planning to stay at school for more than a few minutes (talk to the teacher or visit a classroom), please talk to your child's teacher ahead of time.
- If you pick your child up from school please remember to remain in your car if you are using the pick-up lane and pull ALL the way forward so there is no opening between you and the car in front of you.
- Students can only be picked up by the sidewalk in front of school. They are NOT allowed to walk to a car that is waiting in line on the south end of the parking lot (by the grass).
- Parents must use the crosswalk to get to their car if it's parked in the parking lot. If you are parked on the road, use the side walk to walk to the south end of the lot then walk on the grass to get to the road (do not cut across the lot).
- We are encouraging students to wait for their ride near the main entrance as opposed to by the bike rack so that they can be better supervised. The adults will do their best to find your child and send them down to you if you are parked at the back of the drop-off line.

Building Hours
The main office is open each day from 7:45am-4:30pm. If you need to drop things off or talk to one of our secretaries, those are the hours they are available. Students are not allowed in the office area or building before 8:20 unless they have permission from a teacher, please do not drop your child off before 8:20. Also, please pick your child up promptly when the day ends (3:45 M, T, Th, F and 2:15 W). Students who are still here at 4:00 will wait in the office while Ann tries to get a hold of a parent or emergency contact. If we do not get a hold of anyone by 4:30, we will call the Sheriff's Department to pick up your child. We appreciate your cooperation in getting your children picked up on time.
Bus Information
If your child normally rides the bus and will not be riding for a day or more, please let the bus company know. They are required to wait 2 minutes for students at each stop. To save time, call ahead and let them know your child will not be riding. Prigge's phone number is 920.459.2961.
Also, students who are not signed up for the bus are NOT allowed to ride the bus to or from school with other students. Students who are signed up for the bus may take the bus home with another student with permission from their parent and the office (this should not happen regularly).
