We’re excited to invite you to Lunch with a Loved One! On this special day, families are welcome to join their children for lunch at school. We’ll be gathering outside at the picnic tables and on the lower field to enjoy food, fun, and time together. It’s a wonderful way to connect, celebrate our students, and build community. We hope you’ll be able to join us for this memorable event!

Attendance: Every Day Counts!
Our Goal for this school year
For the 2025-2026 school year our goal is to reach 97% daily average attendance. For the first month of attendance reporting, we reached 95.53%, which is better than the same time last year but still shy of our goal. Please do everything you can to ensure that your students are at school every day – every day counts!

RaiseRight Update
Save Time with Ship to Home
When ordering physical gift cards through RaiseRight, we encourage families to use the Ship to Home option. Shipping typically takes 3–5 days, while coordinator orders will only be placed twice per month. Coordinator shipments also cost $11 and require a signature, which can be difficult to coordinate with UPS.
By choosing Ship to Home, you’ll receive your cards much faster and more conveniently. There is a $1 shipping fee, but if you order a few cards at a time the cost is minimal compared to the wait for coordinator orders.
This is the easiest way to get your cards quickly while keeping the program running smoothly.
Chipotle Family Night
Looking ahead, be sure to order Chipotle gift cards (either as eGift cards in the RaiseRight app or by contacting me for physical cards) to use at our Family Dinner Night on October 8.
Interested in signing up? Contact Danielle Baute at pfoharrydeweyscrip@gmail.com to get started today.
