Winter Break Notes and Reminders
We will not have instructional classes beginning Monday, December 23rd, and we will resume instructional classes on Tuesday, January 7th.
A few things to know and remember during break:
- The school will be open normal hours December 23, 26, 27, 30 and January 2, 3, and 6. We will close at 4:30 p.m. on December 31st and be closed completely on December 24 and 25 and January 1.
- During the weeks of December 23rd and 30th, we will only be opening the preschool office, so all families will enter and exit through the front entrance to the building. Students that are normally in the elementary building classrooms will be brought to that building / classrooms between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. The elementary office and entrance will not be open.
- We have many teachers and staff that will enjoying much deserved time off with their families during the holidays, so please understand that children may not be in their normal classrooms.
- Tuition is still billed normally regardless of attendance. As a reminder, if your child is not attending, you can still make payments through Alma if needed.
- We will serve lunches and snacks as normal; Fridays are still lunch box day / ordered catered lunches.
