This is a reminder that Wednesday, March 5th is the last day to check our school’s Lost & Found.

All unclaimed items will be donated after this date. We encourage you and your child to take a few minutes to look through the Lost & Found to retrieve any missing jackets, water bottles, mittens, or other personal belongings.

There will be no school on Friday, March 6th. School resume on Monday, March 9th.

This continues to be a very trying time in our community. Many of our families and colleagues are dealing with immense feelings of fear and anxiety due to Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) action taking place. Our foremost priority during this time, as always, is to create safe and secure learning environments, and to provide meaningful education to each and every student in our community.

Our district and school teams have put many plans into place to ensure the continuation of this opportunity for all of our students. Please refer to our dedicated website for the most up-to-date information, including on topics like learning options, meals and safety/security procedures.
