Lost and Found

Redwoods K-Kids have been kind enough to sort and organize our lost and found table. If your student is missing a hat , glove, sweatshirt, water bottle or any other item now would be a great time to remind them to check the lost and found table outside of the cafeteria.

Electronic Student Devices - cell phones and watches

As more students bring cell phones and watches with wi-fi and data capabilities, it is

important to remember and inform your children about the policy of using them while at

school. During school hours, students must keep the phone in the locker/cubby or

backpack and have it turned off. If a parent needs to contact their child or a child needs

to contact a parent, that communication must go through the school and in most cases

the main office. Watches are another area where communication may occur if wi-fi or

data are enabled. Students may wear watches and use the watches for time telling

purposes or tracking their steps and other non-communication purposes. However, if

students and parents are using the watch to call and text each other, those devices will

be viewed more for communication and will be asked to be put away each day like a cell

phone. Thank you for your attention to this matter and following these rules.
