Field Day

Please make sure your students are dressed appropriately for the weather and they have on sneakers and sunscreen prior to dropping them on for field day. We will be giving your child a popsicle at the end of the fun. Teachers will be sending home a permission slip for the popsicle on Monday. Please sign and return by Wednesday. Thank you!

Parking Lot & Safety Reminders

For the safety of all students and families, please review and follow these important guidelines:

  • Do not block the loading dock or park in any of the coned-off rows. These areas are reserved for essential use and must remain clear at all times.

  • Do not park on either side of James Street when exiting the parking lot. Both sides need to remain open to allow emergency vehicles to pass if necessary.

  • Hold your child's hand until they reach their assigned door, as outlined in the school handbook. This is for their safety during busy drop-off and pick-up times.

  • Please do not allow children to climb on the railings or the wall outside of Door 1/play in the grassy area in front of the classrooms. These structures are not meant for play and could result in injury. There are many close and local playgrounds you can arrange meetups at.

Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our school community safe and accessible for everyone.
