Parent/Guardian Field Trip Chaperone:

Parents and Guardians, please note that to attend a field trip this fall, you must submit a background check through the elementary office. We will not accept any background checks within two weeks of the scheduled trip. This helps ensure the safety of all our students. Thank you!

Emergency Contact Forms:

Please complete and submit all of your beginning-of-the-year forms to help us stay up to date with everyone. Thank you to all who have turned in their forms!

School Safety Drills

Beginning the week of September 14th, students will participate in routine safety drills, including fire, severe-weather, and lockdown drills. Teachers will explain and practice each procedure calmly and in an age-appropriate way. These drills help ensure that everyone knows what to do in an emergency.

Attendance and Morning Arrival

Developing strong attendance habits helps students feel connected and ready to learn. Please have your child arrive on time each morning. Our doors open at 8:20 a.m. Thank you for helping your Ranger start the day successfully!

Label Student Belongings

Please label your child’s jackets, sweatshirts, lunchboxes, water bottles, and other belongings. Clearly labeled items are much easier to return when they make their way to our Lost and Found!

• September 14th: Drill Week
