Reach for the Stars!
Welcome back, Bulldog families! We have had a great start and we want to thank YOU for being YOU. We are so incredibly fortunate to have the very best students and families.
Bulldog Bulletins are sent every other week to keep you informed and involved. These newsletters include exciting celebrations and news you can use - so make sure parent portal emails are delivered to your inbox and be sure to click the link to view the newsletter.

Important Reminders
Arrival: Please do not use 190th street for car or foot traffic. Car/walker/bike arrival should take place on Center Ave. and not the office or main entrance. Using 190th creates unsafe conditions and congestion for our busses and disrupts our arrival flow on Center. If in the carline, pull all the way forward.
Lunch Delivery: If your child typically eats a lunch from home, we would encourage you to send your child with their lunch. When we have many lunch deliveries during our lunch window, this can become difficult to manage in our front office. We are not able to accept things like DoorDash or GrubHub. If you are dropping off a forgotten lunch or outside food, please be mindful of your child's lunch time and deliver 20 minutes before their scheduled time.
Transportation Changes: We can not accept transportation after 2:30pm on full days and 11:15 on half days. We need at least 30min from the end of our day to ensure effective communicate of changes to all staff members that need the information.
Electronics: Cell phones brought to school must be turned off and kept in the student’s locker or other area designated by the administration during the entire school day. Cell phones are not permitted in classrooms, lunchrooms, hallways, bathrooms, or other common areas of the building or outside on school grounds. If a student needs to use a cell phone outside of these designated times and locations, he/she must get permission from an administrator or program supervisor.
Students are not to bring personal electronic devices (excluding cell phones and smart watches) to school, school sponsored activities, or on school buses. Regarding smartwatches, students should be alerting a staff member that they need to contact home while onsite and in the presence of our staff. Students should not be using the communication function without first informing a staff member of the question/issue/concern. Please review these expectations with your child.
