Dear Parents and Guardians,
As we start the new school year, I want to remind everyone of the importance of safety in our parking lot during drop-off times.
Please do not pass other vehicles in the parking lot while dropping off your children in the morning. This rule is in place to ensure the safety of all our students, staff, and families. It is crucial that everyone enters the school safely.
Thank you for your cooperation and commitment to keeping our school community safe.

Students will be dismissed today, August 30, 2024, at 12:00 p.m. We apologize for the inconvenience that this may cause. All activities that are scheduled for after school are cancelled also.

We are having difficulty with some of our air-conditioning in the school building. Classroom temperatures will be assessed again at approximately 10:00 a.m. and if deemed necessary, students may be dismissed at 12:00 p.m. today. Another message will be sent shortly after 10:00 a.m. We apologize for the inconvenience.

A message from Mrs. Morris:
Next week, students in grades 5-8 may begin signing up for band,strings, and chorus. Students will receive information to bring home, but parents/guardians may email me and I will email the forms directly to them. (4th Grade will be starting at a later date.)
