To our wonderful 5th-grade students: Congratulations! You have shown so much growth, leadership, and resilience during your time with us. While we are sad to see you leave our hallways, we are incredibly excited to watch you shine in middle school. Always remember to be respectful, be responsible, and be safe. You will always have a home here!

Has your student misplaced a jacket, sweatshirt, hat, water bottle, lunch pal, or glasses? Please come into the school to check out the lost and found items. All unclaimed items will be donated on Wednesday, June 10th.

Any student that is an independent walker MUST head home after school. Students may not stay after school and play on the snow hills or playground.

For SES Elementary pick-up and drop-off, please follow the blue arrows. Please do not drive south on 4th St. off to Wright Ave, instead use either 2nd or 3rd Street. Both of these streets will lead you to the appropriate location to access the pick-up/drop-off line. We will have staff waiting at the elementary loop to assist students entering and exiting your vehicle. Our top priority is student safety.

Please DO NOT call the office after 2:15pm for changes to your students pick up mode. All changes needs to be made before this time. Students will be dismissed according to the pickup method listed in PikMyKid.
