• Square One Art will only be coming home from students who were here in the beginning of Q1 within the 2024 school year.

• We notice an uptick in car riders and less bus riders on cold weather mornings which leads to longer car rider lines. Please keep this mind as you plan your mornings.

Every child will receive their owl post at school if it is not a gift.

Click the link for the session you want in order to fill out the application. Once the application is approved, a fee will be attached to your child’s SchoolPay account.
