Parents and Students: Just a reminder, if food is being delivered it must be during these times: 12:20-12:55. The student must be the one to come to the office to pick up their meals. We are trying to eliminate food being ate in the classrooms and disrupting the educational day.

October is Principal Appreciation Month. We want to take a moment to thank our Principals for their commitment to our school. They go above and beyond to encourage and empower our students and staff.
