There are people who have attended meetings or are picking up a sick child who need to leave before the end of the school day. Please be considerate of this and follow the posted signs for pick-up and drop-off. Thank you for having patience and driving carefully during drop off and pick up. Student safety is our prioirty!

Transportation Changes Transportation Changes

If there is a change in your child's pick up or bus transporation. Please contact the front office. DO NOT leave a message on a teacher's voicemail. The front office will get the message to the teacher and keeps a spreadsheet with the change in transportation information. This ensures that messages do not get lost if a teacher is absent or unable to check their messages before dismissal.

5th Grade: Chloey Davies

Chloey was chosen as Brave of the Week because she shows us every day what it means to be a Brave. She is a fabulous role model and always chooses to do what's right, even when no one is watching. She has grown a lot this year in 5th grade, not just in her school work, but she has also come out of her shell and let her personality shine this year! I am so proud of Chloey, and I will miss her next year when she goes off to middle school. Keep shining, Chloey, you will do amazing things!
