Today is a 1 day
STUDENTS DO NOT ENTER THE BUILDING FROM THE VESTIBULES UNTIL 7:45 A.M. WHEN THE BELL RINGS. IF IT IS RAINING, SNOWING OR EXTREMELY COLD, THE MAIN OFFICE WILL LET YOU IN AT 7:40 A.M.
We remind all parents NOT TO PARK IN or USE THE CUT OUT in front of the school from 2:30-3:15 pm! We service many students who use various means of transportation such as: buses, vans, etc. that need to pull in and out for pick-ups during that time.
Anyone entering the building must report to the Main Office, sign in and take a visitor's badge. No one will be allowed to walk through the halls without a visitor's badge. Also, no visitors should park in the back staff parking lot. It is strictly for staff only.
Per the Superintendent's directive, parents are asked that if your child forgets something, e.g. school materials, musical instruments, etc., you do not bring the item(s) to school but work with your child on remembering these items in the future. However, lunches can be dropped off in the coolers located in front of the Washington Pl. entrance. The coolers are labeled by grade. Remember to label your child's name on the lunch.
IMPORTANT: Any student who is late to school must come immediately to the Main Office and sign in and take a pass. Students are not to go to their lockers first. Again, it is imperative that students get to school on time but if that is not the case, they must follow the above procedure.
