PERSONAL MOBILE DEVICES AT SCHOOL PERSONAL MOBILE DEVICES AT SCHOOL

Please help us keep our classrooms focused. We kindly as that parents and guardians refrain from texting students during school hours. Messages exchanged during class can be a big distraction - not just for your child, but for their classmates as well.


If you need to get in touch with them, please call/email the school office and we will make sure your message gets to your child promptly.


Let's work together to support focused learning. We appreciate your cooperation.
