Check out our Teacher Appreciation FLIER to see how the PTA and Administration will celebrate our staff all week long!

 

Letterland Parade

We will hold our 4th Annual Letterland Parade for PreK, K, 1st and 2nd graders on May 28th at 8:45am. Please review the letter LINKED HERE for important information about this fun event. We look forward to seeing our students dressed up as their favorite Letterlanders and we hope you will join us to watch the parade in the Bus Loop.

 

Carpool - All Tracks In!

With all tracks in, we will see an increase in carpool traffic on Monday! We encourage you to carpool with neighbors and friends whenever possible to minimize the number of cars on campus. YOU MUST have carpool tags for all students you are picking up.

 

In the morning, please plan to come EARLY.  As a reminder, we do close the gate at 8:25am and students will then need to check in at the front office after this time. If we make the decision to split traffic, we will do so when another staff member comes to direct traffic. DO NOT begin exiting students at the front of the building from cars unattended without a staff member present.

 

Please be sure to pull all the way up in the carpool line to keep the line flowing.

 

If you are in the lane that backs up to the back of the middle school parking lot where buses go, please leave a space in the line so that buses can get through. When buses can’t get through that backs us up.

 

Thank you for your help in keeping the carpool line moving quickly and safely!
