Comments Off on Welcome Back To School Information

Welcome back! As the new school year is quickly approaching we are trying to streamline some of our processes. This year we are putting all information together in one place for you via individual family packets. Your packet can be picked up any time from the front office. Office hours are Monday-Thursday 8:00am to 4:00pm. In this packet you will find a lot of information, some is for you to keep, some needs to be returned in the folder on or before August 10 (the sooner the better).

Please read through the information carefully and do not hesitate to contact us with any questions.
