Arrival and Dismissal: 

For parent pick up and drop off, we ask that parents remain in cars and follow the “loop” to drop students off or pick them up directly in front of Door #10. Please refrain from parking in designated staff parking spots. 

As an alternative, parents can park in a designated parking spot and walk their child up to the door or pick them up from Door #10

Important visitor policy:

If you have supplies or items to drop off, please label them clearly with your child’s name and teacher name and put them on the table in the vestibule inside Door #1.Then, ring the doorbell to let the office staff know you have dropped something off. Please refrain from parking in designated staff parking spots. 

New Middle School Start Times for 2025-26 School Year

Beginning the 2025-26 school year, Middle School North will start at 8:00 AM and Middle School South will start at 8:20 AM. These slight adjustments — just 4 minutes earlier for MSN and 16 minutes later for MSS — were designed to better support families who may have to drop off at both schools while keeping close to the current time schedule. We appreciate your flexibility as we make thoughtful changes to help everyone’s daily schedule run a little smoother as we transition to this new grade level configuration! Bus time notifications will be sent out in Mid-August to allow for enrollment changes. Parents can request transportation after August 1st when filling out the Annual Forms.

Spotlights

Empty Printer Cartridges Our school is collecting empty printer cartridges. This allows our students and teachers to return empty print cartridges from printers at home to be recycled. Our school will receive money for each accepted cartridge. Cartridges that are brought from home can be sealed in a zip lock baggy. Let's help our environment and recycle them! Bring your cartridges to the main office.
Parents: Do you need to see the Principal or speak with your child’s teacher? Please call first, or stop in the office. Going directly to your child’s classroom can be very disruptive to daily instruction. It also doesn’t allow you or the teacher the time you may need to discuss matters.
2022-23 Reward Schools Congratulations to our 2022-23 Reward Schools! Ashley Elementary, Naldrett Elementary, Great Oaks Elementary, Lottie Elementary, Lighthouse Elementary, and Middle School North! This places these buildings among the top performing schools in the state.
