A message from Principal Zeigler
Hello Brayton Families
I hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend. As we start planning for end of year class parties, please remember that there is no food allowed, not even in a goody bag.
During this Memorial Day weekend, we honor all of those men and women who lost their lives in service to their country. We thank them for their sacrifice.
Have a wonderful week!
In Partnership,
Ms. Zeigler

A Message from Nurse Johnson
Nurse's Corner
In order for medication to be administered in the school setting, a physician's order/medication form is required for both prescription and non-prescription medications. This includes all over the counter drugs such as Tylenol, Advil, cough syrup, cough drops, herbal medication and sunscreen. Like prescription medications, over the counter medications (including sunscreen) are regulated by the FDA, thus requiring a doctor's order.
You can find parent links here.
As a reminder: Please note that if your child is absent from school, they may NOT return to the building at 3pm to attend any school-based after school activities such as disc golf, play practice, etc.
Please go here to read the message from the Health Office.
School Counselor's Corner
