THURSDAY is the big day! Please take note of all the reminders below, especially those regarding parking ....
- Students will be required to go back to their classrooms after they are excused from the gym and will be dismissed at the 3:35 bell.
- Please communicate with your child that morning regarding how they will go home after the concert!
We kindly ask that parents/guardians/grandparents go back to their vehicles after the concert and enter the pick-up line, following normal school safety procedures. Doing so will help to eliminate any confusion and ensure that all our students are accurately accounted for. - If it is necessary to take a student from school prior to the 3:35 bell, parents/guardians/grandparents will be required to sign them out from the office. Please know that this early dismissal will be recorded on the child’s attendance as an R - Removed Early. It will then appear on their report card as a TARDY.
- PARKING: In addition to the McDill parking lot, cars can park on the west side of School Street (non-curb side) and any of the side streets across from the school. (When parking on any side street, please be respectful of the homeowners property and do not block any driveways/walkways.)
NOTE: Parking is NOT allowed on Elm Street or in front of the school (the curb side) of School Street. Since it is a Thursday, we will have our normal 4K pickup & Little Scholars bus parking in this area. - Please be respectful of others during the concert and silence your cell phone, as well as the volume on any other electronic devices.
Please share this information with grandparents or other guests coming to the concert. As always, students WILL NOT be able to leave school before the bell rings with any adult who is not given prior permission (via a note, call or email from the parent) to sign that child out of school.
The students have been working very hard on their program and are eager to share it with family and friends. We hope many of you are able to attend!

Our 2nd graders had the opportunity to expand their knowledge of CKLA and apply it to a STEM LEGO activity. Students worked together to build a model that represented the Earth's rotation. As the Earth rotated on its axis, students were able to see how the rotation causes the cycle of daytime and nighttime.
