PTO meeting
We invite anyone who is interested and available to join the Winnebago PTO for their October meeting.
Fall Fundraiser Update
First and foremost, thank you to everyone who either bought or helped sell items to support this year's fall fundraiser.
Drop off, pick up, and transportation changes
Morning drop off occurs between 7:40 and 8:05 a.m. After this time, students will need to enter the school through the office. After school, students who are being picked up are dismissed at approximately 2:55 after buses have cleared. Students should be picked up by 3:05 p.m.
If you are in the drop off / pick up line, please keep these guidelines in mind:
- In the morning, students get out of vehicles, one vehicle at a time with that being the one at the front of the line.
- In the afternoon, please pull forward as far as possible. Students will be called by vehicle, usually 5-6 at a time. Students will not be released to vehicles until all traffic movement has stopped.
- Children getting into vehicles should be buckled.
- Cell phones shall not be used while driving on school grounds.
Thank you for your attention to these guidelines to help keep all children on our grounds safe.
If you have transportation changes for a given day, please call the office no later than 2:00 p.m. This gives the office time to notify teachers of the change.
Parent-Teacher Conferences
We will have early dismissals on Wednesday, October 9th and Thursday, October 10th for conferences. Bus riders will be dismissed at 12:40. All other students will be dismissed at approximately 12:50.
If you have not yet scheduled a conference, please contact your child's teacher to do so.
Days of No School
There will be no school on Friday, October 11th and Monday, October 14th.
