Regular attendance is vital to success in school. Parents or guardians are expected to maintain a regular attendance pattern for their children and to inform the school of any absence and its cause. Family vacations planned on school attendance days are discouraged. There are many different learning activities and opportunities going on in classrooms each day. Not everything can be done independently as most require some level of prior instruction from the classroom teacher. These procedures are intended to help parents and students understand the academic responsibilities relative to extended absences. Now is the time to plan your vacations during planned vacation periods. The 2010-2011 school calendar is published on the district website. Please plan any family trips for next year during one of the vacation break periods built into our calendar.

Please remember to keep all pets at home when dropping off or picking up your children. Dogs and other animals are not allowed on school property. You can meet your children across West Ave. if you choose to walk your dogs and the children can cross West Ave. with Henry, our crossing guard.  We need to keep the safety of our children first.
