Civic Drive Pick Up Request
If you use Civic Drive to pick up your child in the afternoon, please do not block the driveway of the business located at the top of the hill. We want to be respectful of our neighboring business by not impacting their ability to access their parking lot. Cars that are parked for long periods of time waiting for dismissal to begin is causing the driveway to be blocked.
Please help us out by not arriving too early before dismissal (students start dismissing at 2:30), and by leaving the space in front of the business driveway accessible.
Thank you so much for your cooperation!
Are You Returning?
Please click on the link below to access the form:
This form is for all current PK-3rd grade students, and will be available until Friday, May 14th, 2021. Thank you so much for helping us plan for the upcoming school year.
Online Student Placement Profile (Current PK-2nd grade students only)
Student Placement Profile forms can be accessed by clicking on the following link:
Parent input regarding their child's learning strengths and weaknesses are a crucial part of the data that we review to finalize classes. If you would like to provide information about your child's learning style, please complete the Student Placement Profile form on or before May 14, 2021. Forms will not be accepted after May 14th, as campus administrators use this to finalize class lists over the summer. Please note that specific teacher requests will not be accepted.

New CDC Guidelines for Fully Vaccinated Persons
Now that vaccinations for Covid are more available, it's good to know how they affect your need to quarantine if exposed to Covid.
People who are fully vaccinated (2 weeks after their last dose in the series) do not need to quarantine after a close contact.
Unlike people who have only a 90 day window of immunity after testing positive, fully vaccinated people are not limited to 90 days.
As it is still early in our vaccination experience, the CDC will continue to evaluate how long the protection lasts, but for now, it is considered ongoing!
Click here for the full guidelines.
