We were notified by First Student that due to a higher than normal shortage of bus drivers today, there will be buses ruing late to their scheduled bus stop. Please monitor your student's bus stops.
Also, all changes to buses have been entered into the First View App. You can use this app to track your student's bus and be informed of any bus number changes. We appreciate your patience and cooperation this morning.

Please take some time to complete this family survey.


Greetings Fireflies!
Don't forget that we are out of school this Friday November 10th, 2023, in observance of Veterans Day.
If you are looking a way to show some respect for our Veterans, consider writing Thank You letter, making cards or even reviewing appropriate flag protocol with you students at home. If you have Veterans in your family or know some in the community, make their day by showing them that you are thankful for their service. If you would like to send the letters or cards back to school with your students we will deliver them to a Veteran for you.
If you have questions please feel free to call the main office or reach out to your child's teacher.
