Printed report cards will be sent home to all students. PreK - 5th will go home on Thursday, October 19th and 6th - 8th will go home on Friday, October 20th. Parents are encouraged to review the report card grades and set goals for the new quarter. Parents of students in grades 1st - 8th will also get an electronic version of the report cards through FACTS email.

Students may wear green & white accessories such as socks, bows, bracelets, etc. with their uniform in support of our pep rally. Please note that October 20 is not an Out-Of-Uniform day.

Students cannot be checked out after 1:15 on pep rally day, October 20. If you need your child between 1:15 and 2:45, then your child must be checked out prior to 1:15. All students and teachers in PreK - 8th grade will be in the gym from 1:15-2:30. After the pep rally, all students will be dismissed to their assigned dismissal area. 

We are excited to extend this invitation to our school parents, but due to limited space, only one parent visitor can attend per quarter and the following guidelines must be adhered to so we can accommodate all parents who wish to eat lunch in the cafeteria.



Parents who wish to eat lunch with their child must:

• Sign up on the Sign-Up Genius before Monday at 12:00 noon.
• Only those parents who have signed up are allowed to visit the cafeteria.
• Due to space, one parent visitor is allowed per quarter. Please do not sign up for more than one visit per quarter as this blocks other parents from signing up.
• When signing up, include whether you will purchase a plate lunch from the cafeteria or bring something from home so the cafeteria can plan accordingly.
• If you are not purchasing a cafeteria lunch and are bringing food into the cafeteria, the Child Nutrition Program does not allow food that is wrapped or marked with commercial/fast food labels in the cafeteria.
• For safety reasons, siblings are not allowed.
• Because this is a special time for parents to be with their child, parents and their child will eat together at the designated visitors’ tables/spaces. Other students must stay in their regular seat assignments.
• Upon arrival, parents should sign in at the school office and receive a visitors pass. Parents should walk directly to the cafeteria when their child’s lunch time begins. When lunch is over, parents should walk directly to the office and sign out.
• Parents should not follow students to the classroom or activities after lunch.
• For the privacy and safety of students, cell phones are not allowed to be used on campus for personal reasons. You can take a picture with your child, but it must be outside or without other students in the background. Please enjoy this cell-phone free time with your child.

We hope you enjoy this time together with your child and appreciate your cooperation and willingness to follow the guidelines above.
