Did you know.....all elementary students are provided with a Chromebook to use at school for completing schoolwork?

Elementary students are not permitted to use personal devices like cell phones, tablets, laptops, smart watches, etc. during school hours. These devices are often a distraction to the learning environment. Help your child #stayfocused!

If a student needs to contact their parent/guardian, they should come to the office and use a district-provided telephone. Students that violate the cell phone policy will be disciplined per consequences stated in the handbook.

The district is not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged devices that are brought to school.

Saying goodbye on the first day of school can be tough! Parents and family are not permitted to escort students to their classroom for safety purposes. We will have a photo backdrop in the foyer area to take pictures on the first day. Then staff will be available to walk your child to class.

Parents who wish to drop off and/or pick up their child from school should use the route pictured in the photo map above. When turning onto campus from highway C, turn right on the first paved road that goes behind the elementary school. Follow the road all the way around until you come up by the gymnasium. About 8 cars are loaded/unloaded at a time.

If you are first in line, please make sure to pull all the way up to the crossing guard holding the stop sign. Students should exit the vehicle quickly and walk close to the building to stay away from traffic. Once all students have exited the vehicles safely, the crossing guard will turn the sign to "slow" and the next set of 8-10 cars moves forward to repeat the process.

Please do not use the road near the main entrance for private vehicle drop off. This is for use by school buses only.
