The Elementary School revises student pickup procedures
EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY
After monitoring the situation and considering the safety of the
students as our top concern, parents will no longer be allowed to park
in the front parking lot to pick up their child/ren.
The school district has determined that separating "parent pick up"
and "bus pick up" from the same parking lot area is the safest
procedure for the students.
Again ... our students and your children's safety is the school districts
top priority.
Thank you for placing your student's safety as a top priority.

The 8th grade girl's class has had a dominating season winning district titles in volleyball, basketball and track. This is in addition to the volleyball and track titles they won last year as 7th graders.
The 7th grade boy's class added another chapter to the athletic success that our boy's program has demonstrated since 2004. They won titles and were undefeated in football, basketball and track for the season.
Great job to all of our student-athletes!
