The Week in Review…
Lunch Drop Off
This is a reminder that all parents, grandparents, guardians and visitors are to report to the main office each and every time they enter the school. This procedure is in place to keep all persons in the building safe. If families are dropping off a lunch for their child or children, they are not to walk down the halls or up the stairs to deliver the lunch in person. There is a table in the front hall specifically for lunch drop off. When you drop off a lunch please make sure you put your child’s name on the lunch. Our students know that if they do not have a lunch, they are to check the table. We appreciate your attention to this important safety consideration.
