Happy Holidays!
Safety Before and After School
Families, please remind your students to make safe choices while walking to and from school each day. Remind them to use the designated crosswalks and wait for the crossing guards to wave them across when it is safe, as well as to keep rocks and snow on the ground to ensure that no one gets hurt. We can all work together to ensure that kids are safe!

Holiday Performances Friday, December 20
We are excited to welcome our families to attend our Holiday Sing-Along this year, which will take place on Friday, December 20.
Kindergarten through 2nd grade will perform between 9:00-9:30am.
- Families may line up outside of the gym/cafeteria starting at 8:20am and the doors will open for families to be seated at 8:45am, with the performance starting at 9:00am and ending by 9:30am.
- Students will return to classrooms at the end of the performance. If families would like to check their students out after the performance, note that the office will not be calling students down until 10:00am. Families will be asked to wait in their vehicles or outside until this time. This will allow for a safe and orderly transition so we are able to account for all students.
- Please note that students who are checked out early will miss their classroom parties.
3rd through 5th grades will perform between 9:45-10:15am.
- Families who are in attendance at the first performance and have older students may remain in the gym/cafeteria.
- Families who are only attending the second performance will wait in the hall east of the gym/cafeteria until the first performance is completed and those families have left.
- Students will return to their classrooms after the performance. If families would like to check their students out following the performance, note that the office will not be calling students down until 10:45am. Families will be asked to wait in their vehicles or outside until this time. This will allow for a safe and orderly transition so we are able to account for all students.
- Please note that students who are checked out early will miss their classroom parties.
If you are unable to attend the event, we will be taking video and sharing the video link on ParentSquare.
