Thanksgiving Break Monday 11/21- Monday 11/28

Sick Kiddos

We are hoping with the break that our students will get to feeling better. But please remember our school policy is that if your child has a fever, they are to remain home until they are fever free for 24 hours without medication. Also, if your child vomits, they are to remain home for 24 hours for observation. Remind your children of the importance of hand washing to help stop the spread of germs.

Progress Reports go home today!

Progress reports for the 2nd nine weeks come home today. This will give you an update on how your child is doing before the nine weeks ends on December 21st. They were sent home with K-1 students, and they are being uploaded into Ascender for those in grades 2-4 (titled Cycle Grades).


In the future:

K-1 will still have hard copy skills checklist reports

2-4 will simply be uploaded into Ascender


Here is how to access your 2nd-4th grade child's grade report in Ascender.

Background check

Each year, we need to complete a background check on parents who would like to come and serve at the school or chaperone students in any way. Do this as soon as possible to not delay you attending any field trips or being able to help out in your child's classroom. Please follow this link to complete the form for this year.


If you would like to come and help out at school please email your child's teacher. We would love to see you on campus.
