The door for drop off in the morning is locked at 8:35am. If you arrive after that and don't see an adult outside please drop off your student(s) at the front office.

Please make sure that you are pulling all the way up to the northside of the building. For the safety of our students all students should be getting into the vehicle on the passenger side. We appreciate your support at our pick up and drop off line.

Join your students for lunch at the school! If you choose to eat our hot lunch, please notify the office at 920-662-9800 before you arrive at school. As a courtesy to our teachers, we ask that you only come for lunch and do not walk back to class with your child. This allows the teachers to implement their class routines quickly and efficiently when they return with their students to the classroom. Thank you! As a reminder, you will need a valid license or ID when you check in at the office.
