Picture day for ALL students (Preschoolers – 8th Grade) and staff is scheduled for Tuesday, October 19. Pictures will start at 8 a.m. Order forms are going home with students today!

For preschool parents: if your child is not normally here on Wednesday, please still bring them in for pictures between 8:00-8:45 a.m.

Save the date for Very Important Persons Day on Friday, October 29. Invites will be going home next week for students to distribute to their VIPs.

The staff requests that when your child comes down sick, please consider keeping your child home an extra day beyond the 24 hour time period just to make sure that the sickness has subsided. The student body is having the normal health illnesses in the classrooms that still can cause classmates and teachers to catch. If the sickness continues to keep coming back into the classroom then it cycles around and around without ever really getting rid of. The staff thanks you for your patience, cooperation, and understanding as we work through a return to normalcy. Please contact your child’s teacher for work that was missed.
