Spring time conference are coming up teacher will be sending out letters and conference time information. Just a reminder that during the week of conferences, we will have early dismissal starting March 31-April 4th. Dismissal will be at 1:30 PM.
Reminders for Families
Please do not drop off students before 8:30 AM. Walkers should also avoid arriving prior to this time, as there is no adult supervision available. The gates will open at 8:30 AM. Additionally, students should not be dropped off at 8:30 AM in the classroom since there is no supervision during morning preparation. Students may either go to the cafeteria or go outside until it is time for class. This is to ensure your child's safety.
Thank you for your understanding!
TELEPHONE MESSAGES - The school telephone is extremely busy. Telephone messages for children must be limited to EMERGENCIES ONLY. Any telephone messages regarding student transportation must be directed to the office before 3:00 pm. This allows the proper paperwork and process to occur; making sure your child is delivered to the right location.
Field Trip to the Library
The second-grade class had an exciting trip to the new city library! The kids had so much fun exploring all the different sections, and they even received their very own library cards. What a great day for our young readers!

Attendance
Dear Parent/Guardian,
We are off to a great start in the 2024-25 school year. As we get further into the school year, we would like to remind you of the importance of good attendance for all students. Every day a student is absent is a lost opportunity for learning. Too many absences not only can affect achievement for the absent student. While occasional absences are inevitable, please prioritize regular attendance.
Missing more than 10% of the school year or 18 days of school can impact your child’s social development, academic learning, and path toward high school graduation. If a problem arises with health, food, transportation, housing, or anything else, please call your child’s school or the district office so we can assist.
If your child has 7 unexcused absences in a month or 15 unexcused absences in a year, a petition will be filed with the Juvenile Court, and intervention measures like a Community Engagement Board may be initiated. Continued truancy may require court involvement. To report an absence, contact your child’s school within 5 school days via phone, email, text, or written note.
The school will work with you and relevant healthcare providers to support learning for extended illness. We understand that there are times when students may need to miss school, even with communication from parents or caregivers. However, frequent absences can add up and affect
We have a new document that you need to fill out if you will be taking an extended vacation. Please remember to notify the office and your teacher so that we can go over this form with you. We ask that you schedule time with Mr. Shepherd or Mrs. Moe to ensure you have all of the information and work prior to leaving.
