Lost and Found
Our Lost and Found bin is overflowing! Students may ask their teacher to check the Lost and Found bin for missing items. It is located in the small APR.
Items will be displayed in the main entrance vestibule during conferences. Make sure to check the collection on your way to conferences! Unclaimed items will be donated on December 19.
Winter Weather
As we enter the colder months, we will continue to take students outside for recess whenever possible. Thank you for helping us to prepare your child(ren) for an enjoyable recess period.
- Students should dress in layers, and bring jackets/coats, hats and gloves every day.
- Please lable all clothing with your child's name in case an item is left behind during recess.
In the event of inclement weather, any cancellations of afterschool activities or extracurricular events are made by the District. The Facilities Department assesses conditions to ensure sidewalks and parking lots are safe, clean, and clear for students, staff, and visitors. Any cancellations will be communicated via District email and banners on the website.
