ATTENDANCE
The start of the 2021-2022 school year has shown many absences. If your student is absent, other than officially quarantined, call the school and let us know why your student is absent. When your student returns to school, please be sure to send in either a parent note or a doctor’s note.
Attendance improves when schools engage students and parents in positive ways and when schools provide mentors for chronically absent students. Read more...

The school website has all forms, information, calendar updates and district information along with links to individual teacher webpages which are extremely useful to both students and parents. It is important that you log into Parent Portal and choose the option to receive email and texts from the school. Not only can you view your students grades, attendance and other information it is also a great communication tool to keep you connected.
