Office

• Our children choice program started today. The students enjoyed their first children choice day. Remember no sodas and no candy for lunch.
• Please complete and return your emergency card ASAP.
  
• If your student needs to have any medication at school, including over the counter, please ask the office for a release form. This includes inhalers for asthma.
• Eighth grade parents have the opportunity to volunteer to serve lunch for the month of September. You earn lunch credit for your student when you volunteer. I have some seventh grade parents that have responded. Please call the school office @255-5803 if you are interested.

Sports

Students have football and volleyball try-outs and practice this week. Please remember to pick up students on time. Students are not allowed to wait in the parking lot or by the school corner for their parents.



Safety Valet

I would like to thank all of you who have volunteered during the morning for Safety Valet. Seventh grade parents are scheduled for this week. This is an easy and safe way to earn service hours.
