From the Principal

Thinking ahead to Halloween costumes for school…Please keep your child’s safety and comfort in mind. The weather conditions often vary this time of the year. Children will be walking around the school and the playground so they need to be able to move easily and may need to wear layers under their costumes. The theme of the costumes should be school-appropriate and avoid violence. No masks of any kind, guns, blood, or weapons can be permitted.

Save the Date - Tuesday, November 6, will be Parent Visitation Day. More details will be sent at a later date.

School Start Time - Our school day begins at 8:35 am. Supervision begins at 8:25 am. Children need to be dropped off on or after 8:25 am. They are considered tardy if they arrive after 8:35 am.

Lunch - The weekly lunch choices are sent home each Monday for the following week. Due to bookkeeping and cafeteria schedules, we will have to return menus if they are not in the office on Wednesday. Menus for lunch are available on the school website.

Lunch Cancellation – If your child is absent due to illness and has ordered lunch, when you report the absence, you must also specifically request a credit for lunch for that day.

Absences - All absences and late arrivals need to be reported. This can be done 24 hours a day by calling 757-7555 and accessing the student attendance message box by pressing “3”. Please remember when you call to report an absence or tardiness, you must give a reason. If no reason is given, your child will be marked with an unexcused absence or tardiness. Please do your best to schedule student appointments outside the school day. This allows us to make the most of instructional time.
