A Note from the Principal
I extend my sincerest gratitude to each and every one of you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend our recent Parent-Teacher Conferences. Your presence and active participation in your child's education are invaluable contributions to their success.
Your commitment to your child's education doesn't go unnoticed, and we're super grateful for your active role in their journey. If you ever have more questions, please reach out to your child’s teacher or myself.
A Reminder
If your child loves starting the day with breakfast at school, make sure they're here by 7:45 AM. When they come after 7:45 AM, they miss out on learning to eat breakfast.
We want every student to have the chance to enjoy a good meal before class, so being on time is the key. Your help in getting your child here by 7:45 AM ensures a smoother morning for everyone.
Starting March 5th, students who arrive after 7:55 AM, will receive a milk, juice and breakfast bar. This will ensure the student can still get to class quickly and minimize distractions in the classroom.
Thanks for your cooperation! If you have any questions, feel free to give us a call.

Student Pick Up
Starting March 5th, when students are leaving school during the school day, parents will be required to come into the intermediate office and sign their student out. Students will only be allowed to leave with adults listed on Infinite Campus. This process is consistent with other school buildings in the district and ensures students are leaving with the appropriate adult.
