We will host our Parent Conference Week starting Monday, March 9th- Thursday, March 12th. Be on the look out for sign up sheets from teachers.

Parent Lunch Schedule

As you're planning to come on campus for parent lunches, please remember to get to campus early. Every parent has to have their ID scanned. This takes time. Coming early will ensure you get your sticker and make it to the cafe when lunch starts.

While eating with your student, we're asking that you're not watching cartoons on your phones. We have games that you can borrow and play.
