You will receive a schedule at Open House to let you know which day your child will be screened.Back to Top

Parents and children are invited to visit the school Monday, August 10, 2009. This will give you an opportunity to meet your child's teacher, principal, and visit the classroom. There will be a group meeting in the cafeteria beginning promptly at 4:30. We urge you to bring your child and attend our Open House.Back to Top

What is the price of breakfast and lunch?
Breakfast is served each morning. The price of a tray is $1.00 which includes their choice of chocolate or white milk. The price of a lunch tray is $1.75 daily or $8.75 weekly. So that your child doesn't have to keep up with their lunch and breakfast money each day, we suggest that you send both for the whole week when possible. You may also set up an account for lunch and breakfast thru the cafeteria and place money in it as needed.Back to Top
Does kindergarten eat a snack in the afternoon?
Because kindergarten eat lunch early, we do offer a snack in the afternoon. The snack is a nutritious snack provided by the cafeteria. The price is .75 cents a day ($3.75 for the week). This includes a drink, usually milk or juice, and something to eat. Once a week ice cream is available. Children also have the option of bringing a snack from home rather than purchasing one from school, but we recommend that you don't do both.Back to Top
