A Note From the Office
Dear Parents/Guardians,
As we approach Thanksgiving, I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for each of you. Our school community is more than a place of learning—it’s a family built on care, collaboration, and shared purpose. Thank you for your ongoing support, dedication, and the trust you place in us to help nurture and guide your children.
On behalf of our staff, I wish you a joyful and peaceful Thanksgiving filled with warmth, love, and cherished moments with loved ones. May this season remind us of the many reasons we are thankful as a school family.
Partners in Education,
Dr. Elliott and Mrs. Sandbothe
Principal and Assistant Principal

CELEBRATE YOUR CHILD'S BIRTHDAY ON THE MARQUEE THIS YEAR
Marquee Birthday Message
We want to help you celebrate your child's birthday this year in style. As a reminder, NO FOOD ITEMS MAY BE BROUGHT FOR STUDENTS TO CELEBRATE BIRTHDAYS. FOOD ITEMS WILL BE TURNED AWAY AT THE OFFICE. NO EXCEPTIONS.
HOWEVER, we know birthdays are special. You can purchase a birthday message to your child to be displayed on our Disney marquee for $5. If you use the Google link below, it will walk you through how to celebrate your child!
1. All requests MUST be complete and paid for by the 25th of each month! So, if your child has an October birthday, please submit forms and payment by September 25th!
2. If your child's birthday was in August or over the summer, no worries! We are happy to celebrate a 1/2 birthday! If you prefer to celebrate on their actual birthday, Ms. Shayla will be here all summer and we would be happy to run their birthday wish in the summer months, as well.
Please complete the Google Form HERE. The link to the MySchoolBucks Payment Center is located within the Google Form. If you have any questions, please call the office.
Interested in Volunteering?
We have so many volunteer opportunities at Disney right now! Please look to see how you can help!
Sometimes our visitor versus volunteer process is a little messy. Please use the link below to help you understand what is needed to complete the Volunteer Process as well as what constitutes as volunteering.

Nutrition Information
Breakfast and lunch is available for all students. We HIGHLY encourage ALL families to take the time to complete the Free and Reduced Lunch form. We understand many families feel they may not qualify, but it does provide information for the state regarding our families' needs in our area. The federal and state education department provide funding based on these numbers. Although it seems cumbersome, we ask that you continue to help Disney receive the appropriate amount of funding per student by completing this form. Application for Free/Reduced Meals HERE
Meal Prices & Payment Options
Breakfast, lunch prices can be found on www.sps.org under the Parents/Guardians tab, then choose Nutrition. The menu choices are found on the right. This is also where students can view lunch menus and parents can make payments.
I have included a link HERE.
