Classroom:

All students need to bring a water bottle to school. These will travel with them for P.E., Dance, & Recess. Needs to have a top that closes & is spill proof. Having a water bottle in the classroom helps your child stay hydrated, less time leaving the classroom for water.

Label Belongings: 

Help us reunite lost items quickly by labeling everything your child brings to school—jackets, water bottles, lunch boxes, uniforms, backpacks, and instrument cases.

• Use a permanent marker or name label

• Include first & last name and grade/homeroom

• Re-check labels after washing

Unlabeled items are hard to return and often end up in Lost & Found. Thanks for your help!
