Lost and Found
Lost and found is overflowing. We are going to donate the items in the lost and found at the end of the month. Please come check it out, if you are missing anything.
PAC Corner
Just a reminder that our monthly meetings are the first Tuesday of the month at 6:00 pm in the media center. We can use your help working the concession stand.
Parking Lot
Please remember a couple things about drop off and pick up:
- Our parking lot is a one way. You need to drive behind the parking spaces on your way in and in front of the parking spaces on your way out.
- When dropping off students, please follow the flow. It is a one lane road.
- Please do not pass people dropping off students. It may take a minute or two, but it is better than injuring a student.
- Do not drop off students in the parking spaces and have them walk across the lot unless you are escorting them.
- The circle drive is to be used during school hours only.
Shutterfly/TinyPrints
If you order from shutterfly or tinyprints, please use our storefront. We will receive 8% of the sales.
