Please note - milk money
A message from Food Services:
Per the USDA Regulations we will not allow a student to go hungry. We will always let students charge meals. However, we cannot allow milk charges. Please note that milk is 50 cents. In order to get milk, panthers need to bring milk money or have money on their account to pay for it. Thank you!

-$700,000 Lost Due To Declining Attendance - We Need Your Help!
Last year, the School District lost over $700,000 due to declining attendance throughout grades TK-12. These losses directly affect programs at each school. We need your help turning this trend around:
If you are taking a family vacation during the 2019-20 school year, please take it in April and/or May.
Rationale: Every day your child is absent, regardless of the reason, reduces the school budget between $50-$55 per absence, per day.
On April 1, our attendance reporting changes. Any missed days between April and May reduces the school budget by approximately $1 per student, per day. Yes... $1. Please help us avoid cutting programs by scheduling your vacations accordingly.
If you are going to be gone for consecutive days, you are eligible to sign up for independent study. Each school has an independent study coordinator that can assist you. Only completed independent study packets receive full attendance credit.
Caution: All short-term absences, even excused absences, penalizes the school at a rate of $50-$55 per student, per day.
Our #1 reason for absences are for short-term vacations and days missed for appointments, not for student illness. The District gets funding for any portion of a day a student is in attendance, so please try to start and/or end your day at school if at all possible!
We are asking all families to make attendance a priority this year. Our programs depend on it! Thank you!
