The Solar Eclipse was such an amazing way to start the week! Students and staff were absolutely captivated by the phenomenon. We had done a lot of planning to ensure that everyone was safe and students followed all of our expectations. A big thank you to Mrs Linge for teaching all about the solar eclipse and how to be safe so that our students had background knowledge before the big event. It was definitely a memorable experience for students and staff to share together!

Kindergarten Round up is this week! We can't wait to have all of our incoming Kindergarteners come to visit!
We will open the doors at 6:00 and you can sign in, get your tshirt, take your picture, and talk with our PTO. There will be three rotations and you will be put in a group. You will rotate through three areas and the students will have an activity. At the end, families will get on the bus for a ride and get their yard signs.

School Safety
All doors are locked during the school day. If you come to school, you will be buzzed into the foyer area and office and then asked to show identification before your child is released. All visitors/volunteers in the building must report and sign in at the office. Visitors must wear a badge in the school building. All volunteers in the classroom and for field trips must have a background check on file each year. Just a reminder that if you have a felony conviction you may not volunteer in the classroom or on field trips.
Free School Breakfast and Lunch
Governor Whitmer has made school breakfast and lunch free again this school year. You will receive free and reduced lunch forms the first day of school. Even though meals are free we encourage all families to fill out the forms. The completion of the application by our families helps us receive federal funding. Lunch menus are available at this link.
