Many of our families have noticed the new iPad kiosks in front of the window at the main office. Changes are COMING SOON to our sign in process for adult visitors - stay tuned for more information!

The process for students is not changing. Please continue to speak with a staff member in the main office and use the purple iPad to sign students in and out during the school day.

During a busy day of learning our students can get hungry! Please remember to send a snack or two with your student so they can fuel up to be engaged at school.
