Grandparents'/Grandfriends' Day!
We know that not all grandparents will be able to make it during this time. If this is the case, please let your child's teacher know in advance if someone else will be eating with your child so we know who will be in our building. If your child will be checking out, make sure to send a note with your child if that person is not on the checkout list! If a student is checked out, they will be counted absent.
Grandparents'/Grandfriends' Day forms will be coming home soon! Please turn them in as soon as possible so that we can plan accordingly!
Lunch times for each grade level:
2nd Grade: 10:30-11:00
4th Grade: 11:00-11:30
Kindergarten: 11:30-12:00
3rd Grade: 12:00-12:30

Back Car/Walkers
If you walk to meet your child in the back car area to get them and walk them home, you must have a car tag or a driver's license to identify yourself. You will be asked for these for identification purposes. This is the same procedure that we would take if you were in a car in order to ensure the safety of our students. Thank you for your cooperation with this!
Box Tops!
Morning Drop-Off HELP!
The front entrance should only be used for those few times that you need to bring your child into school.
Other Car Rider Reminders
In order to keep our students safe and to help car rider line run as efficiently as possible, please help us by doing the following:
- Please stay in your car at all times. We have duty staff that will help students get in their cars if needed.
- Please pull all the way up to your spot where your child is standing. This helps all the cars behind you pull to their correct location as well.
- Please be patient. During the first couple of weeks, we have several that are learning how to be a car rider as part of their new routines. It will soon be a "well-oiled machine"
- If you do not have your car tag, you will be asked to show ID.
We appreciate your help with this!
