Receiving The Weekly ViewPoint? Office Reminders For the safety of our students we ask that you have your identification ready to show the secretary when picking up your child for early dismissal. Forgotten items: On those occasions when a book, project or other required item is forgotten and the front office phone is used to call home, your child will be responsible for checking the front office between classes to pick up items. Classes will NOT be interrupted in order to give messages or materials, unless it is an emergency. Forgotten lunches and money will be place in our office lunch box and given to the student during his/her lunch period. Phone messages, when received early, can be delivered to students during lunch; otherwise, students will be called to the front office with afternoon announcements. Please join us on Thursday, September 27th at 6:30 PM for Back-to-School Night. Have you marked your calendar and checked your child's schedule in his/her Agenda Book? Please plan to attend and bring your child's Agenda Book.
