PRINCIPALS CORNER
A reminder on picking up your child: If your child is in grades 4-8; your child will be dismissed from their classroom when their car
is visible in the parking lot or are met by their family member at the door to the outside of the building. Students will be asked not to
wander around the building looking for their parents. If students are walking home or leaving to the farm, please exit the property
as soon as school is dismissed and all family members are gathered. Beware of strange vehicles and stay in groups of 2 or more
if possible.
Once again, we are going through a school evaluation we hope that our committees have been gathering information. If you
missed the survey, please get one from the office and fill it out, our school would greatly appreciate it.
