If you are planning on signing your child out after graduation, please respond to your child's teacher's weekly email and let them know. You will let your child's teacher know know again after the festivities on Graduation Day, and sign your child out with them.
Per Administration's guidelines, no grade level siblings will be allowed to attend the Kindergarten Celebration.
Once the Kindergarten Celebration is over, students will walk into the cafeteria with the Kindergarten Teachers and take a seat at the tables. Please walk through the hallway that you entered in and go meet your child at their table. Please enjoy cookies and punch and celebrate your little one. Afterward, you can sign out your child in the cafeteria. In order to sign out your child, you will find your child's teacher. Then you will sign a golden ticket and a sign out sheet. Your child's teacher will keep the sign out sheet. You will take the golden ticket and your child to the front doors of the school. Hand the golden ticket to the monitor at the front door of the school, then you will be free to enjoy the rest of the day with your little one.
Next week, we will be learning and celebrating with popsicles. The nutritional facts are included here for your review. If your child can't consume these ingredients, please respond to your child's teacher's weekly email to let them know as soon as possible.
Teachers will be collecting Bus SMART Tags on Thursday, May 22 as students get on the bus at dismissal.
Students will be manually entered on Friday if they ride the bus.

Registration for the 2025-2026 school year opened on Tuesday, April 15.
Enrollment is an annual requirement and doesn't roll over from the previous school year, but for returning families, the process is an easy three-step completion. The process is handled through Home Access Center via a guardian’s account, which results in previous registration information being completed. Enrolling your child as early as possible is one way you can help your campus and the district prepare for next school year.
