Notes and News:
Future Seventh graders
Parents- if you have a sixth grader, please bring vaccine papers to our office and turn in to the school nurse as soon as possible. Turning in the papers now allows for files to be updated and ready for the start of seventh grade. You need: Tdap, Meningitis, and 2 chicken pox.
–Thank you, Mandy DeJournett, School Nurse
Lunch Money-past due accounts
We will not be serving breakfast or lunch on the last day of school (May 26).
Our school has a large negative balance for school meals. Please get your child’s lunch account paid through the end of the year.
Message from our district nutrition department:
MyPaymentsPlus is a free service that allows you to pay for your student’s meals online. You may also pay with a check or cash directly at your school’s cafeteria. We hope these methods will assist you in paying the owed negative balance, as soon as possible, since we are nearing the end of the school year. Meal charging is a courtesy and should not be a regular practice. —Thank you – from ASD Nutrition Services

During their mission, crews will test their skills in communication, critical thinking, collaboration, and must creatively problem solve to overcome many challenging situations. Camp options vary in length and prices, ranging from $40-$150 with all camps including at least one meal.
