Any visitor to the building must check in at the office and receive a visitor’s sticker. Please bring your driver’s license/ID to register as a visitor or to check out a child anytime you come to school.
While parents/visitors are welcome to enter the building, we will continue to use our office window for quick questions or early checkouts if you desire to do so. Please know that using the window is your choice and for your convenience. Feel free to request entry to the office if desired. Please note that the wooden door to the office will remain locked for security purpose; you will have to wait to be buzzed in by our office staff.
We are looking forward to a new school year. Thank you for the opportunity to teach your child!
