Complete back to school check-in
Check-in opens on August 17th. It is helpful if this is completed prior to the first day of school as this takes place of completing an emergency card.

Medications:
Students who require medication during the school day should have that medication and documentation submitted to the school office prior to the start of each new school year. More information is available regarding Medication Use on our district website. Written authorization from a physician must accompany ANY medication, this includes over the counter medication. Please call the school office if you have questions regarding the handling of medications.
