Welcome Back Day
All students are invited to drop off school supplies, meet classroom teachers, and get school pictures taken on Monday, August 12th from 4:00-6:00 pm. PTO is making this a true welcome event with Lincoln's Dogs hot dog cart, Kona Ice, a wonderful photo op, and spirit wear available for purchase.
I encourage you to follow this schedule:
- 4:00-5:00 pm - Last names beginning with A - I
- 4:30-5:30 pm - Last names beginning with J - Q
- 5:00-6:00 pm - Last names beginning with R - Z
This should cut down on the crowds in classrooms, as well as congestion in our parking lot. However, please understand you are welcome to come anytime between 4:00 pm and 6:00 pm if you have scheduling conflicts. If you are unable to attend, school supplies can be brought on the first day of school.
Picture Day
This year, Picture Day will take place during Welcome Back Day on Monday, August 12th from 4:00-6:00 pm. There will be an opportunity for retakes if you are unable to attend our welcome event. Click the link below to order your pictures.
Class Assignments
Teacher assignments will be available on Wednesday, August 7th via Home Access Center (HAC).
