URGENT REMINDER REGARDING MEDICATIONS: If your student requires lifesaving medications, such as an Epipen or an asthma inhaler, these must be provided to us with a medical release by your student's doctor.
If your student's medication becomes expired during the school year, they will not be allowed to attend school until non-expired medications with doctors orders can be brought to campus. We will try our best to remind families when medications are about to expire. You can help us by providing keeping track of the expiration dates for your student's prescriptions. This will help use to keep your student safe and to avoid missing any school.

CLASS LISTS
Class list for Fall 2023 will be posted at the building the week of August 28th. You will also receive a welcome letter from your child's teacher. We believe in the quality of all our teachers. Our teachers work closely together through their PLC meetings. Our teachers use the same core curriculum and they assess students using the same standards-based assessments. They share the responsibility of equitable student success across the grade. When we draft class rosters we strive to create diverse classroom communities. For these reasons, we do not take requests for specific teachers. However, your input is important to us as a partner in your child's schooling. If you would like to provide feedback regarding your child's class placement you can do that using this form. Class Placement Feedback Form for Parents
