Calling all future kindergarteners - it's time for Kindergarten Admissions! All students who will be 5 years old on or before October 1, 2026 are eligible for kindergarten next school year.

• If you live within the newly paired Heritage/Summit View boundary area, simply visit the link above to begin the admissions process.
• If you do not live within the Heritage/Summit View boundary, you will need to apply for both Kindergarten Admissions AND Open Enrollment. Please review the Open Enrollment email sent out on Tuesday, November 4th for more information.

All reusable volunteer badges kept in the grey bin near the office window were recently reviewed by our office staff. If you are a regular volunteer whose photo ID has not been scanned recently, you may find that your badge has been removed. To ensure you have an updated badge, please bring a photo ID with you on your next volunteer shift so we can scan it and issue a replacement.

The district has just posted this FAQ around open enrollment on the Growth and Decline Webpage. Check it out if you have any questions!

We are so excited to have families join us for Thanksgiving lunch this year on Wednesday, November 19th.

Getting Ready for the Holidays with GIFTCROWD!

A new way to celebrate our amazing teachers & staff!

This year, the PTO is excited to try something new for holiday gifts using Gift Crowd! Instead of classroom baskets or classroom gifts, families can now contribute online to show appreciation for our amazing teachers and staff.

It’s simple: choose a teacher or staff member, decide your contribution (all amounts are confidential), and add a personal message. Just before winter break, each recipient will see their total and redeem it for gift cards of their choice.

A meaningful and easy way to make the holidays brighter for the people who do so much for our kids! Click this link to participate!

Please join us tomorrow in the library for our PTO meeting to discuss upcoming events and volunteer opportunities!
