Patriot Family Gazette 12/11/2022

Patriot Nation,

Our Polar Express Read a Thon is rocking steady! We have read over 500,000 minutes, collected prizes, and raised almost $20,000 for our PTA! What a great way to celebrate the season. If you have had a chance to register or make a donation, please see the information below. We are wrapping up the fall semester this week with a busy calendar (See Below). Class winter parties will be on Thursday, we have our final shows for our Christmas musical on Tuesday and Thursday Night, and we have early release on Friday. Car Riders and walkers will be released at 12:30, and bus routes will run at 1:00. Also note that there will be no BGC on that day. We hope to see you this week!

Honored to serve,

Brett Shelby

- Please drop off by 7:50. Our tardy bell rings at that time and we want our Patriots ready to learn with us.

- We cannot release kids after 2:45 due to dismissal procedures. If you have appointments, please make arrangements to pick up by this time.

- If you are dropping off before 7:15, please use the back loop. This area is staffed and students are directed to the cafe or gym. After 7:15, our front loop will be open.
