REMINDER
As a reminder, all visitors including those wanting to check out a student must present a photo ID upon entering the campus waiting areas. Any on campus visitor must check in on the iPad set up in the waiting area. Parents only wishing to check in or check out their student, will continue to follow the same procedure by presenting your ID(checking out a student) and using the iPad to check in or out. Our front office staff will assist with any questions you may have.
Again, please ensure that you bring a valid photo ID when entering any of the buildings. For the safety and security of our students, all visitors (whether picking up a child, attending a meeting, volunteering, or signing in for any purpose) are required to present photo identification upon entry.
Thank you for your cooperation and for supporting our commitment to maintaining a safe school environment.

CELBRATE THIS WEEK FOR READ ACROSS AMERICA
March 2 is Read Across America Day, a day to celebrate our favorite activity. The day was established by the National Education Association (NEA) in 1998 to help get kids excited about reading. The day occurs each year on the birthday of beloved children’s book author Dr. Seuss, so a perfect way to celebrate is to don a Seussian hat and read one his famous tales, like One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish. On National Read Across America Day, students, teachers, parents, and community members around the nation come together to read books and celebrate the joy of reading — join us!
