From the Nurses Office

Any student who has medications stored in the Health Office must pick them up before the end of the school year. Any medications left after the last day of school will be discarded. This includes Epi-pens and inhalers.

In preparation for the next school year, if you are visiting your doctor over the summer, please be sure to get written doctor’s orders for any medication needed during the school day or for any standby or emergency/rescue medications.

Thank you.

Have a healthy summer.

Class Night

Class Night is a special evening for 8th graders and their parents/guardians! Traditionally, 7th-grade parents/guardians organize this event. We look forward to having plenty of volunteers from grades five and six. This tradition gets passed down each year, so it is very helpful to get involved as a fifth or sixth-grade parent. 

Set up will begin June 7th in the afternoon and continue all day on June 8th.

Please consider giving a few hours to ensure this is another memorable and special event for our 8th graders. Click here for more information and to signup!
