"Prejudice distorts what it sees, deceives when it talks, and destroys when it acts!"
Parents – We Need Your Help!!!
Elementary dismissal is at 3:00 - M/S & H/S dismissal is at 3:10
If you need to pick your children up, please observe the dismissal times. We understand students,
From time to time, may need to be picked up for emergencies or appointments.
But . . . the confusion created by pre-dismissal pick-up makes it very difficult to manage.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
- George Oehlert, Principal
