Happy Earth Day! We hope all our families are staying safe and healthy. Thank you to all the families that participated in our virtual spirit week. It was great to see the photos and videos of our students on Facebook!
Make sure that you sign up on Qtego to participate in The Tiger King of Auctions. Bidding starts May 2nd at 6:00 pm and concludes on May 9th at 9:30 pm. Follow our PTA Facebook Page to participate in our online party on May 9th from 6:00 - 9:30 pm.
School Supply Kits for the 2020-21 school year are now available for sale. Skip the stress of back to school shopping and order online at www.shopttkits.com (account number 36155). Place your order by June 5, 2020 and your student's school supplies will be delivered directly to their classroom.
Please note an important change to the weekly Grab-and-Go meal program. Families will now be asked to provide your child’s name and student ID number (lunch number) to staff on site. If your child is under school age, or is in another school system, you must provide each child’s name and date of birth in order to receive food. We want to ensure all students who need a nutritious meal have access, so our district is implementing new technology to better track our meal distribution. This process may mean wait times to receive Grab-and-Go meals could be a little longer. You can help speed up the process by writing your student's information on a piece of paper with large print— and holding it up to the window.

If you don't hear from the vendor or ASE Club Coordinator by April 24th, please email [email protected].
