Important:

* Please make sure your child has a coat to wear at outdoor recess and gym.  The weather is getting very chilly at times and coats are required for temps under 65 degrees.

At Home Learning Days:

  • Please make sure your child comes to school with a charged chromebook each school day.  We do not have extra chargers to charge them in class. 

  • Please remember to turn in your child’s review work (with your child’s name on it)  the next school day.

  • Google Meet time is at 2pm each at home learning day.  Please make sure your child is in a quiet learning spot with any materials required by their teacher. 

  • Espark is required each at home learning day for a minimum of 20 minutes in both Math and Reading.
