We would like to remind families of how important it is that parent contact information is up to date. You can view contact information in ParentVue. Accidents, injuries and illness happen and it is imperative that we have correct parent phone numbers and that voicemails are set up and can receive messages. We often encounter voicemail boxes that are full or ones that are not set up. Also, please check that your child's emergency contact information is correct and that your emergency contacts are available during school hours if needed. Let the school office know if anything needs to be updated. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
