From The Principal

The staff wanted to send a HUGE THANK YOU to our PTO & Families for showering us with such wonderful gifts this week. Snacks, water bottles, and school supplies are definitely the way to teachers' hearts. Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness and kindness!


The link to sign up for After School Enrichment is below. Today is the last day to register, so please sign up if you are interested.


I am looking forward to seeing all of the students showcase their interests in our Talent Show tonight!


Have a wonderful long weekend,

Kristy McKnight

We want to ensure you’re getting timely alerts on inclement weather operations and other important notifications. Please take a moment to do the following:


View Notification Preferences/Enable Text Messages
District 303 will send notifications to families through the ParentLink system by text message, phone call and email based on your settings. Parents/guardians can view and edit their contact settings through the Home Access Center.
To receive timely emergency communications, we strongly encourage families to enable text notifications. For most people, this is the fastest way to receive and view important messages. Here’s how:

  • From the HAC main menu, select the “registration” tab to view your contact settings
  • Select the “edit” button to change your contact settings
  • To enable text message notifications, enter your cell phone number in the Cell/Text field
  • Select the “save” button
Users can only update their child(ren) and personal contact information. You will not be able to make changes to another parent/guardian's contact information. For updates to emergency contact people, please reach out to the school directly.
