Good morning! Families, this is just a friendly reminder that you should be dropping your children off at their designated outside areas in the mornings if you choose to walk with them. Staff is more than happy to assist your children while walking inside of our buildings. Our effort is to keep everyone safe, and the less traffic we have throughout our buildings in the mornings, the better able we are to do this. If you need to see Miss Kim, the nurse, or principal, please let someone know so you can wait at the Main Office to do so. Thanks!
