Greetings Families!
We are about to see a turn in the weather and especially this time of year, our students wear sweaters/jackets to school, take them off at recess and... well it's a 50/50 chance they will possibly leave them, generally not in the convenient spot of their bags or classrooms that they remember to take them back home! Our lost and found shelves are filling up quickly. Please remind your student to stop by the lost and found to grab something you notice is missing, or you are welcome to stop by and take a look too. At the winter break, we donate anything that has not been picked up.
Please note, every other week our grade-level newsletters are updated and linked below. Teachers are not sending additional emails home with their newsletters because the feedback we received was that families were inundated with emails. All school-wide communication will be shared in the Bulletin and Grade-Level specific information will be updated and linked in each Bulletin. We hope this streamlines communication.
Communication coming out every two weeks-
Enjoy a great week!
Always True Blue,
Amanda Bunch

We welcome families to come see our students for our Character Parade. This year we will line our outside front entrance and sidewalk with families wanting to see our students. Our students will start inside the building and make their way out the front entrance making a circle coming back in at the North entrance. All of this will be weather pending, but we hope you can make it out!
Our parade will start at 7:50am and wrap up at about 8:10.
We have been welcoming Lunch vistors for a few weeks. We ask that visitors sign up prior to arriving at school for lunch.
Visitors/Parents must sit at the tables on the Stage and may only have their child eating with them, no friends are permitted to join.
