Bus Tracking App
Following work with our vendor, the Zonar MyView bus-tracking app is now available again and functioning as intended. To set up the app to track your child's bus, follow the steps below.
1. Download the Zonar MyView app from the App Store or Google Play
2. Enter NW2021 for the School Access Code
3. Enter your child's student ID
4. Create alert zones around drop-off and pick-up points
When your child's bus enters an alert zone, you will receive notification by email or text.

Let's show our teachers some love and appreciation for all they do in the classroom and beyond the classroom by spoiling them with some tricks or treats. The PTSA will be collecting items and donations so we may pack the lounge with fangtastic treats for all our teachers to enjoy on Halloween Eve, Friday, October 29th. To do this we need parent help!!!
Please help by donating treats! Let's make their Friday morning SPOOKTACULAR! We are going to make it super easy for you and will be outside Wednesday, October 27th AND Thursday, October 28th in the morning from 8:15 to 8:50 AM collecting donations of snack items in the car line SO you don't even have to leave your vehicle. You may also send items to school with your student and they can deliver them to the front office.
