Stateside Scoop

PTO has some fun activities planned for our upcoming Fall Festival!

🎃 Trunk or Treat: We’re looking for families who would like to decorate a trunk and join in on the fun! This will be FREE for our students. NO TICKETS NEEDED!

Sign up here: https://forms.gle/BzCjpAzruacnEYoF7

🍭 Candy Monster Drive: We’re also collecting candy by grade! Each grade will have its own Candy Monster, and the grade that brings in the most candy will win a 🎉 Popsicle Party! 🎉 Checkout the flyers below for more info!

🚗 During both morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up, please remain in your vehicle. This helps our lines move as efficiently as possible and most importantly, helps us keep our students safe. Your child can enter the building through one of two ways — the car rider line or the bus rider line. Please do not park in the bus parking area in the morning.

🍎 Parents and guardians are welcome to eat lunch with their child but you must receive approval from your child’s teacher prior to the desired day as there may be testing or schedule changes taking place on a particular day. Due to limited cafeteria space, we cannot accommodate additional family members.

You are encouraged to pay fees and all classroom field trip expenses by our school online payment system, School Cash Online. Register via the School Cash Online homepage:
