Please contact the school to update any contact information so you can stay informed.

Good attendance is a great habit!

Bus Rider Families:

Please ensure you arrive at the bus stop for pickup and are prepared to board the bus 5 to 10 minutes early each day. This will help the drivers maintain their schedule and adhere to the designated routes. Thank you!

Attendance Policy:

Good attendance is vital to student success. Studies show that students who are frequently absent have lower grades, lower self-esteem, and increased behavior problems. We want to help all of our students to be successful and have set up guidelines for attendance. Students are expected to be in school every day possible, but we realize that there are some reasons for absences. It is the responsibility of the parent or guardian to call by 9:30 am on the day of an absence when a student is absent letting us know the reason for the absence, or you will receive a call. If no call was received, the student must bring a written note from his parent or guardian stating the reason for the absence. Automatic calls will begin at 10:30. If you receive a call in error, please call the school (269-782-4464) in order for us to figure out the situation.

Please remember to keep us updated with all phone number changes so you can stay informed.

PTO:

We encourage all of our parents to be involved with our PTO.

Our next meeting will be October 21, 2024 in the library at 4:00pm.

Volunteers:

We welcome any and all suggestions and volunteers. You will need to have a volunteer form on file.

Dismissal car riders: To facilitate our line moving along we would like you to load your car on the passenger side next to the sidewalk. Please remember to use the pick up line and not the parking lot, and buckle up for safety.

Water Bottles: Students should bring their own refillable water bottle for the school day. Please label all of your students belongings. We have filling stations in the hallways and drinking fountains in every classroom.

Cold and Flu season is here, please remember to wash your hands, drink plenty of fluids, and good nights sleep every night!
