Lost & Found Lost & Found

Missing something? It might be waiting for you!

Our Lost & Found is filling up with jackets, hoodies, water bottles, lunchboxes, and more. Before replacing a missing item, be sure to stop by the Lost & Found in the cafeteria, located in front of the school office, and see if it's been turned in.


💡 Husky Tip: The best way to reunite lost items with their owners is to label them! When your child's name is clearly written on their belongings, school staff can often return items directly to them the same day.


🐾 Take a quick peek the next time you're on campus. You might be surprised by what you find! 😊
