NE Parking – Child's Play Drop-off 

As a friendly reminder, if you are dropping your children off at Child’s Play at the NE corner of our school, please do not park in staff parking. There is no parking there between 7:00am and 5:00pm. Those are assigned spots designated for staff and it causes delays for our staff who are trying to arrive at school on time and get ready for the day. Thank you.  

Meet the Teacher Night – Thank you! 

Sincere thanks to all those families who attended our Meet the Teacher night yesterday. We had a great turnout, and it was so nice to see the school community together in person. Thank you also for those who brought their bottles and cans to help our families in need.
