Hot Lunch News
Hot Lunch will begin the week of September 18. We will be using Doctor Dogs again. We will let you know when the system is open for ordering. For now, you can log into the system here: https://doctordogs.h1.hotlunchonline.net/ and update your student's teacher. Go to Student, Action, edit and update their teacher. If their teacher is not updated there will be confusion during lunch distribution. Want to help distribute hot lunch? It only takes an hour of time and your students love to see you there! We need parent participation to keep our hot lunch program running. Sign-up here: https://signup.com/go/DCRcnbc
Classroom Holiday Parties
Sign-up to help at your student's holiday parties will look different this year. There will be an email with a sign-up website link sent out next Thursday afternoon. There will be 6 slots available for each holiday party. Each party will have a slot for a “party organizer” who will be responsible for working with the other 5 party volunteers. You will only be able to sign up for one party in each classroom that your child is in. This will allow everyone to have a better chance at attending one of their students’ parties.

Student Needs:
Please inform the nurse of any allergies or sensitivities to foods, medications, and environmental allergens.

About Your Student’s Medication:
The district's medication administration policy mandates that all medication to be administered at school requires an MD order, this includes over-the-counter medications. Students may NOT keep over-the-counter meds in their backpacks or in their lockers--including cough drops, Advil, etc. This is an important safety concern! Please review the policy included in the registration process.
