If you have a child eligible for Kindergarten this August (rising Kindergarten students need to be 5 years old before September 30, 2023), please complete the form and return it to our office by March 29th. If you have no need for the form, please check with your neighbors who may have children eligible for kindergarten and share this form with them.

Cold Weather is Here!
As temperatures drop, please be sure to send your children with coats and outerwear to keep them warm for outdoor activities. Bringing these additional items to and from school means that the Lost & Found is growing! Please be sure to label your student's items and encourage your child to check the Lost & Found for any missing items.
