Scholastic Book Fair & Title One Summer Reading Event

We will be hosting our Scholastic Book Fair the week of May 20-24. Classes will visit the book fair where students can purchase books at the fair. The book fair will be opened late to families on Thursday, May 23rd during our Title One summer Reading End of Year Event. If you would like to help by volunteering at our book fair, please sign up by clicking the link here. The Book Fair Schedule will be shared to families this week and teachers will inform families of their designated dates for shopping the fair. 

Summer Reading Event details can be found on the flyer in the News and Announcement section below. This is an RSVP event. We will be hosting two sessions. Session One is for grades PreK, K and 1 from 4:30-5:30 pm and Session Two will be for grades 2, 3, and 4 from 6:00-7:00 pm. If you have students for multiple times please only choose one time for your family to attend.

REMINDERS: Morning Drop Off and Afternoon Pick Up

Please remember that if you are dropping your students off in the morning, even if your student missed the bus, please use the parent pickup and drop off lines. We have noticed an influx of parents pulling into the parking lot and dropping off between buses. This is not a designated drop off zone. Please do not drop off students in the parking lot. You must use the drop off lane when arriving between 8:45 and 9am. If and when the gate closes, please be sure to pull up as far as you can to our main entrance. Please ensure that staff is available to escort your student into the building if arriving on time, otherwise you must escort your students into our building whenever dropping off after 9am. 

We also ask that you take time to review our dismissal protocol as well. We expect that all parents picking up students at the end of the day, wait in our car pickup lane and your student will be dismissed to you in our designated pickup area. If you have made changes to your normal dismissal plan, please be sure to send this change in writing in a timely manner. This can be a handwritten note or email to your child’s teacher as well as the office. Please avoid dismissing your students between 2:50 and 3:00pm as this is the busiest time and is the time bus traffic begins on our campus. We want to ensure your safety and the safety of your child while entering and exiting the main entrance.  

Warm regards,
