Dear families and staff,
Thank you for a wonderful first week of school! We can tell you've been supporting the school by talking about the new cell phone policy and dress code expectations at home and we are grateful. Thank you also for reading through my newsletter each week to stay informed.
DRESS CODE
After reviewing expectations in grade-level forums this week, we began full enforcement of the dress code Friday. Remember, students who are not dressed in appropriate school attire will be asked to change into a PE shirt or shorts. Please review the dress code infographic below and attached. The principal has the final say in the appropriateness of school attire.
SAFETY
If your child is a walker, bicycle rider, or E-Bike rider, please talk to your child about not crossing in front of the car line entrance/exit. It is not a cross walk. Additionally, students riding E-bikes are not allowed at any time in our car line. All students should walk their bicycles and E-bikes until they are off campus. Thank you!
PIKMYKID APP
We thank you for your patience as we implement Pikmykid this year. It must be downloaded if you plan to pick up your child. Directions are attached below.
Have a wonderful weekend.
