Just Like You Book Project
On Friday, March 20th there will be a special, school-wide celebration and kick-off event for our “Just Like You” book project. On this day, students and staff will enjoy a surprise performance that celebrates the message of kindness and inclusion that is the focus of the book, “Just Like You,” which is written about one of our very own students! This celebration is thanks to our incredible PTSO and community support! The project is fully funded.

Arrival: Students can arrive from 7:55-8:20. Students are counted tardy after 8:25am. An adult is required to walk the student in and sign him/her in at the office.
Dismissal: Students are released at 3:00pm. Due to dismissal procedures, we ask that students do not check out after 2:40pm without prior approval from an administrator.
Transportation Changes: Transportation changes need to be made prior to 2pm. If it is a same day change, it must be communicated to the main office. Teachers may not be able to check dojo throughout the day.
Attendance Matters
Attendance “Myth Busters”
Myth: A day or two doesn’t matter
Fact: Just 2 days a month = a whole school year lost by high school
Myth: Elementary absences don’t impact later success
Fact: Early attendance sets the tone for graduation
Attendance when Sick:
As for attendance during sickness, please remember that students must be fever free for 24 hours without fever reducing medication prior to returning to school. Also, for students who have had upset stomachs, they must be 24 hours symptom free before returning to school. While we stress the importance of attendance, healthy students is a top priority. Please do your part in keeping others healthy. If your child misses school due to sickness, please send a note to your chlid's teacher to have the absence excused.
Car Line Safety
We are excited to have new cones this year. The picture above shows our morning car line and afternoon car line (post fastpass). Please follow the traffic pattern established by the cones to ensure student safety. A cone means- do not drive in this area.
Car Line Reminders and Information
Car riders will dismiss at 3pm daily. For the safety of our staff and students, please follow the directions of any staff members helping with car line.
Important Reminders:
-Please remain in your vehicles (with the exception of students who need mobility assistance).
-Please follow the directions of staff members. To keep traffic out of Chub Lake Rd, they will be directing you to move up to specific cones before allowing your child to get in.
-Staff will open the car door for students to enter the vehicle, but they will not be responsible for buckling the student in.
We ask for your patience as the beginning of school year car line runs a little slowly at first. It will move faster once everyone is more familiar with the processes.
