Notes from the Library:
LIBRARY BOOKS ARE DUE!
All Library books are due!!! You may check your child's account by going to the online library catalog (in Clever), clicking on account, and entering your child's student ID # for both user and password. Check on "check-outs" and you can see what they have missing. All students are being given a list of missing books. Remember, I cannot take care of books from other schools. You will have to contact that school to work something out. You can return books here or pay for them here if that helps.
Chromebooks: All students are encouraged to take their chromebooks home for the summer. (5th Grade is required to unless leaving the district, going to charter school, or homeschool.) SCAN the QR code on top of the Chromebook to be linked to the district IT page explaining how you can use the parent GoGuardian app to manage websites for your child, care guide, and handbook. You have the power to block any sites you do not wish them to use.

As educators, we strive to provide a well-rounded education for our students, every minute of instructional time is valuable. When students are picked up early, they miss out on important lessons, discussions, and activities that contribute to their overall learning experience. By minimizing early pick-ups, you are helping to create an optimal learning environment for your child and peers. Thank you for understanding and we appreciate your effort in providing the best possible education for your child.

School Dismissal Manager has been set up for our school. Please check your email for information on downloading, setting up and using the SDM app. You can use this app instead of calling the school office. Cut off time for the app is 2:30pm.
You are welcome to continue to call the office, but please try to call the school by 2:45pm if your student will be doing something different at the end of the day. If they usually ride the bus, but you are picking them up, or if they are going home with a friend, we will need to know the bus number and bus stop street names.
Please let us know by 2:45pm by calling 892-9700. Thank you.
