Weekly Updates

Week of September 20

Morning Drop-Off: Please Be On Time!

We strongly recommend all students be dropped off at school by 7:45am on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays and 8:45am on Wednesdays.
Students are considered tardy if they arrive after 7:50.
Students arriving after 7:50am must check in with Kim Doyle in the front office to sign in and get a pass to enter class.
On-time arrival to school is vitally important for our students. It sets up each day in a positive way.

Volunteer Opportunities:

Halloween Carnival: The Lower School Halloween Carnival is right around the corner and we are looking for volunteers to help with planning! If you are interested, please meet us Friday, September 17th at 8am. We will be meeting in one of the tents on The Green. We look forward to seeing everyone there! If you are unable to join us at our meeting on Friday morning but would like to be included in upcoming planning meetings, please email Nicole Barnes (nbarnes324@yahoo.com).
