🚨 Important: End-of-Year Medication Pickup Notice
As we wrap up the school year, we want to remind all families about the policy for retrieving student medications. The Health Office cannot store medications of any kind over the summer for the following school year. Please review the pickup guidelines below to ensure a smooth transition into the summer break:
💊 General Medications
Who can pick them up: A parent or guardian must physically come to the school to retrieve these medications.
When: On the last day your student is scheduled to be in the building.
Note: Medications cannot be sent home in a student's backpack.
🎒 Epi-Pens & Inhalers
Who can pick them up: These emergency medications will be sent home directly with the student.
Action Required: The student must stop by the Health Office on their last day in the building to collect them.
⚠️ Important Reminder: Any medications left behind after the final day of school cannot be kept for next year and will be safely disposed of per health guidelines.

EMERGENCY DISMISSAL: Due to an electrical issue on campus and required emergency repairs, we will need to do an emergency dismissal for both the secondary and elementary schools. While there is no danger to students, facilities have been impacted. Secondary will dismiss at approximately 1 p.m. Elementary will begin dismissing pick up students at 1:45 pm with buses departing at approximately 2 p.m. Please make every effort to have someone available at your child's emergency bus stop. If you need other arrangements, please contact the main office as soon as possible by calling x2003. All after school elementary activities and after care are canceled. Thank you for understanding this unplanned event.
