Candy Cane Compliments
To help spread kindness during the holiday season we will sell candy cane compliments at school December 17-19 from 8:00-8:20 am in front of the library. Mini candy canes will be attached to a card that says, “I appreciate you because…” Students can buy these for 25 cents each or 5 for a dollar. Proceeds will be donated to help victims of domestic violence. Compliments will be delivered to students on Friday, December 20th.

Kindergarten Registration 2020-2021
Vancouver Public Schools annual Kindergarten registration begins January 13, 2020.
To register for kindergarten, bring proof of birth date and records of immunization to your neighborhood school. We recommend parents register their children by May 1st to ensure that you and your child receive an invitation to attend the Kindergarten visitation program this spring.
Any child who will be five (5) years old on or before August 31 is eligible to enter kindergarten this fall.
Please pick your children up from school on time! School lets out at 2:50 pm (2:10 pm on Mondays). We have had increasing numbers of students left at school 20 or even 30 minutes after school gets out. Thank you for your consideration!
Stay Well!
If your student has vomiting, diarrhea, and/or a fever they have to remain out of school until it’s been at least a full 24 hours since the last episode of vomiting or diarrhea, and fever free for 24 hours without temperature lowering medication (Tylenol, ibuprofen, etc.). If they have a Norovirus diagnosis then they have to remain out of school a full 48 hours after the above symptoms resolve.
Talk to your child about using good handwashing with plenty of soap and warm water, for at least 30 seconds of hand scrubbing. Wash every time before eating, after using the bathroom, and playing outside.
