Tuesday - Dollar Bookstore is Back!
Tuesday is Dollar Bookstore Day
Each Tuesday, during lunch recess, students have the opportunity to buy books for one dollar ($1). These books are gently used and are ready for new homes. Students love shopping for books and can even earn "free book" certificates from teachers and staff.
Donations of gently used books are always welcome! If your child has outgrown their books, please consider donating them to Dollar Bookstore.

Did you receive the SCHOOL DELAY and SCHOOL CLOSURE notifications?
Did you receive a ParentSquare notification for November's school closure and delay announcements? If not, there are a few possible reasons for that:
- ParentSquare only sends phone calls to people who don't have other valid contact points listed, so if you got a text or other notification, you likely didn't receive a phone call.
- You have your work or landline number listed as your phone number. You cannot receive a text on a landline, so you should add a current cell phone number in Skyward Employee Access if you'd like to receive a text notification. Skyward can be found in the staff portal SharePoint.
- Your contact information may be outdated. To update your cell phone number, please do so in Skyward as described above.
If you activate your ParentSquare account (which involves confirming your contact information), you can set your notification preferences about how you'd like to receive general messages.
Want to get the notification before 5 a.m.?
You can sign up for FlashAlert to get the same quick, early announcements that are shared with local media stations. Those are typically posted as soon as the decision is made, which is around 4:30 a.m.
Still not sure if the district is delayed or closed?
You can check the district home page, social media and local TV stations for delay and closure announcements which are also usually updated by about 5 a.m.
Free Meals for all Students
This year all children are eligible to receive free breakfast and lunch. If your child has dietary restrictions, or you don’t want your child to eat the school-provided meals, please tell your child’s teacher. If you send lunch from home, please make sure your child can independently open all items and that you send healthy foods your child will eat.
Breakfast is served from 8:35-8:50 AM daily.
Lunch is served by grade level at their designated lunch time.
