Reminders
Please do not call or text your child during school hours. This is becoming a problem and interfering with instruction. If a child is sick, they should come to the front office to call parents and be monitored for safety. If an item is being delivered to the office for a student, we will get it to them when it does not interrupt instruction. Do not call or text the student to come to the office. We ask that you consider the instructional environment and respect the need to protect instruction time. Students will not be called out of class for messages or “just to chat”. Emergency situations will require administrative approval. We will deliver messages when it does not interrupt instruction. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
SPA DANCE coming soon!
