One School, One Family
Please remind our little Indians that we are one school, one family. We should always use kind words and demonstrate kind actions with one another. Treat others the way you would like to be treated.
Congratulations to Mrs. Beth and Mrs. Aimee's Classes !
These two classes colored all of there letters in their ATTENDANCE sign!
They now will begin on their second ATTENDANCE sign! Mrs. Beth's class voted for cozy toes all day! Can't wait to see what Mrs. Aimee's class chooses to enjoy! Keep Showing Up Indians!
ATTENDANCE
Each homeroom classroom has the word attendance hanging outside of their classroom. Each day that all students in the class are at school the entire day, the class is able to color one letter of the word attendance. Once all of the letters in the word attendance are colored, the class earns a reward that the class chooses from a list of options. If our school meets our 95% daily attendance goal every day in September, all students will earn a slice of pizza!
Super Proud of our Indians! 2nd in Elementary last week!
We are always welcoming volunteers! Complete form below.

Reminder of our Discipline Procedures:
Each classroom implements their own discipline tracking/consequences. At any time, any faculty/staff may deem a misbehavior serious enough to be put on a School Minor Infraction Form or Refer straight to the office where a Major Office Referral will be issued. Classroom conduct marks start over weekly. School Minor Infraction Forms start over every 9 weeks. 3 School Minor Infractions in the same week results in a Major Office Referral. 3 School Minor Infractions within a 9 weeks result in a Major Office Referral. School Major Office Referrals start over every school year and are recorded in JCampus.
