We are putting the final touches on our preparations and cannot wait to open our doors to you next Thursday, August 20th, for our Student Summit! Our teachers and staff have been hard at work creating an inspiring environment, and we are excited to welcome your family into the building to celebrate the upcoming school year together.

In Partnership,

PICTURE RE-TAKE DAY: Monday, September 21st

Pay your student's school fees online through your Parent Portal with credit cart anytime.

Please be sure to fill out A Note from Home for each student so we know their dismissal plan, especially on the first day of school.

Yellow Notes will be in each classroom for you to complete while your student is meeting with their teacher.

“Bus Contracts” will be shared with all students and families at our Student Summit Day. The Bus Contract explicitly states the bus expectations and ensures these expectations are communicated to each student and family. These rules apply to all students, not just those who ride the bus to and from school, as all students ride a bus for field trips.

Please read through and discuss the contract with your child(ren), then sign and return to the classroom teacher on the first day of school.

Thank you for your support.

Students can be dropped off at 8:55 am. Students are allowed to enter the building at 9:00 am.

Students in Grade 1 and Grade 4 will enter Door 12 near the playground blacktop.

Students in Kindergarten, Grade 2, and Grade 3 will enter Door 13 near the front lot.

There are two options for Parent Drop-Off in the morning.:

Option 1: Follow the flow of traffic into the parking lot to the playground blacktop. Cars will pull forward to the sidewalk and students exit the vehicle independently. Students then proceed to their assigned grade level door. Traffic pattern shown on the map with green arrow.
