Slow Down your Speed in the Car Loop/Parking Lot
Please heed this gentle reminder to slow down and use caution in the car loop and parking lot. This is especially important when driving to drop off students in the morning and during pick up from Pirate Island. Many cars are driving at excessive speeds during these times. We want to ensure everyone on campus is safe at all times. Thank you for understanding and slowing down.

It is imperative that every student attend school each day. Every absence, late arrival, or early check out has an impact on their learning. This year, we want our students and families to commit to being anchored in excellence. This includes attending school.
Will you commit to attending every day in November?
Attendance is Key to Learning
Our campus opens at 7:30 for all students and instruction begins promptly at 8am. Our cafeteria offers free breakfast to all students. All students are expected to be in class ready to learn by 8am. Soon, we will begin working with the district and reaching out to families that have excessive absences or tardies. We need to know how to best assist with getting your child to school each day and on time.
Remember, your child is more likely to succeed in academics when they attend school, are on time, and stay all day.
