Our portable classrooms are getting closer to completion. The plumbing is completely finished. We are waiting on electrical inspections. The fire alarms and intercom should be finished in a couple of days. We are waiting on materials for our people to build the steps and ramp. Hopefully we can begin the moving process at the end of next week. I'll keep you updated.

Students will take their first MAP benchmark screeners beginning Monday. Please make sure you have your child at school no later than 8:00 a.m. If they want to eat school breakfast, please make every effort to have them at school by 7:45 a.m.

Please make sure you are leaving a space in the line for PreK parents where the line curves at the end of the parking lot. The line is so long and is blocking the entrance to the inside line for our PreK parents. PreK pick-up is not over until 2:45. Please make sure they have a space to enter the inside line.

When dropping off your student each morning, please do not get out of the car. This causes a disruption to the flow of traffic. We have parents that are trying to make it to work in time. If you wish to walk your child to the front door, you must park in the parking lot and walk them.
