All car riders must be picked up in the traffic loop. bike riders and walkers will be dismissed at the back gym doors. All students should be dropped off by 9:00 a.m. to avoid being late.

Our incredible teachers are getting ready for the new school year and have created Amazon Wishlists to get a head start on gathering some extra supplies for their classrooms.
