Here are some reminders for you on our school campus

Medication

Although it is recommended that medication be given at home, we understand that it is not always possible to do so. In this case, parents must obtain a medication form from the school nurse and have it completed by your child’s physician. Also, medication must be in the original bottle from the pharmacy.

Visitors

All visitors must check in through the office.

Attendance

When your child is absent, please call the office.
