Student ID Key Cards and Proper Building Access Reminders
Please see the below reminders about student ID key cards and proper access of campus buildings.
  • Students must bring their key card each day to school for safety reasons and proper entry into campus buildings throughout the day.
  • Students should not share or borrow key cards from their peers.
  • If a student is misplaced or lost their key card, please notify Ms. Bainbridge via email and bring $10.00 to give to Mrs. Hauf (Front Office) or Ms. Bainbridge (Main Office) to replace their key card.
  • Students should never bang, pull on, or try to circumvent the doors and their proper security usage.
No Personal Hotspots Reminder
As a reminder, students cannot use personal hotspots inside campus buildings during the school day. The use of personal hotspots is a violation of the School's technology acceptable usage policy due to the interference this causes with our wireless network.

Message from the School Nurse's Office
As the flu continues to circulate in the community and may persist into the spring, it remains beneficial for those who have not yet received their flu shot to do so now. Getting vaccinated can provide important protection against the flu, helping to reduce the severity of illness and the spread of the virus. Please continue to practice good hand hygiene, which includes regular hand washing and use of hand sanitizers, especially after touching shared surfaces or using tissues. Contact the School Nurse with any questions.
 
Volunteers Needed 
The Parent-Teacher League (PTL) is looking for volunteers for the Senior Dinner on March 14th. Use the sign up link to help out!
