Early Check Out Notice

Please be mindful, early check-outs may interfere with your child’s learning.  We ask that students not be checked out early unless they have medical appointments that cannot be scheduled for after school hours. Should check-out of a child be necessary, all guests requesting to enter the building should be prepared to show a photo I.D. The child will then be called to the front office.  The latest that you may check out a student is 1:30 pm.

Family Engagement Time

Reading is a great way for you to have some quality time with your child. Accelerated Reader is a program we use at school with reading. Please click on the link below to learn more of how you can help at home.
