Please try to remember to pre-order your student’s lunches when they are going to participate in lunch.  This helps speed up the morning lunch count process.  You will be allowed to order the Friday before the next week using www.sendmoneytoschool.com.  


Reminders-

  • Bring a water bottle to school every day
  • Use door #6

Cold Weather:  Sadly our days are becoming cooler.  Please remember your child is outside up to 4 times a day with gym and 3 recesses.  If the outdoor temperature is below 60, they must have long sleeves.  Please send them in layers so that they can stay warm.
