Would You Like to Honor a Veteran?
Students are invited to ask parents/guardians if there are family members that have served in any branch of the U.S. military. This can include grandparents, parents, siblings, cousins, aunts, or uncles. With the help of parents/guardians, students can complete information on the following document to be used in a Shannon Park hallway display. A copy of this document will also be coming home in Friday Folders. Feel free to provide a copy of the family member's photo (non-returnable) if you would like to have it displayed with the document. Please bring document and/or photo to school office by Wednesday, October 18. (Please do not send duplicate copies of the honored veteran if students have siblings, as all will be displayed in the hallways.)
Arrival & Dismissal
School doors open at 9:15a.m. for students with the school day beginning at 9:30a.m. Please do not drop off your child earlier. The school day ends at 3:50p.m. If there are any changes in your child's daily transportation routine, please contact the main office to ensure the classroom teacher gets the message.
