Box Tops for Education
Our submission for the Box Tops for Education for November 2016 is complete and we had over 7000 box tops. This will mean about $700 for our school. Many of our classes had super submissions but the winner, with 1,016 valid box tops was Mrs. Lang's 4th grade class. Mrs. Lang's class will receive $50 for their classroom account and free POP20 for November 4th! Congratulations for a job well done.
The top class in 6th grade was Mrs. Sutherland and the top in 5th grade was Mrs. Douglass. Each grade had some very close competition so honorable mention goes to Mrs. Orbison, Mrs. Watwood, and Mrs. Burney. The names of the students in all six of these classes will go into a drawing for gift certificates for the December Book Fair. Those winners will be announced closer to the time of the book fair.
Thank you to all the teachers, students, and parents who helped make this a success!

2. Refrain from using cell phone in car line.
3. If picking up more than one child, display all numbers at the same time, in a horizontal fashion. NOT one at a time.
4. If you do not have your car line number, park and go to the front office to check out your child.
