Field Days

Field Days have been replaced with Finish Line Field Days. Students were expected to meet their Accelerated Reader Goal or their First in Math Goal. The goal is for 100% of students to participate in Finish Line Field day for their designated grade level. Teachers created attainable goals with their students. In order to participate, students have to meet their First in Math Goal or their Accelerated Reader goal.

We are in need of volunteers and popsicles.  If you can, please try to donate the popsicles as soon as possible.  A volunteer sign-up sheet will be coming from PTSA.  Please sign-up to make this a fun event for our students who have worked so hard to meet their goals this year.

Dress Code

As the days begin to get warmer and longer, please be sure that the dress code is in adherence. Please click here to view specific dress code specifications from the handbook.

Mrs. Hill mentioned on the PNN that straps on shirts should be at least 3 fingers wide and shorts/skirts/skorts should be below your child's longest finger when their arms are relaxed at their sides.  If you have any questions about a specific garment's appropriateness, please consult the local school administration.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation!

School Fire Lane Regulations
From the Department of Public Safety:

On March 26th an email was sent to Principals concerning Fire Lane Changes.

Per the Fire Marshall's Office, no one is allowed to park in a Fire Lane, whether there is a driver in the vehicle or not, at any time other than the following:

• 30 minutes prior to the end of the school day and 30 minutes after the end of the school day (this does not include the After School Program nor any other activity at the school)
• passengers actively loading or unloading during the day (this would cover students unloading in the morning at the beginning of the school day)

The only time a vehicle would be allowed in a Fire Lane would be to actively drop-off and/or pick-up a student where there is no waiting. Other times, such as After School Program or after school activities would not be included.
