2013 Yearbooks on sale from May 28th till June 6th

Price is $35.00

Students can purchase them at the ticket booth by the cafeteria in the morning before school.
Parents can purchase them in the front office during school hours.






Cafeteria Reminder

Please remember that starting Monday, May 20, 2013, children who are in the reduced category will need $.40 for lunch daily and those in the paid group will need $2.25 Elementary and $2.55 at secondary.

Those who are receiving benefits but still have a negative balance should make every effort to settle your student's account.   Some of these meal charges may have been incurred before your child was approved for meal benefits but federal regulations do not allow these meal charges to be "forgiven".

If your child has a negative balance please make plans to resolve the outstanding balance by the close of school.

If you have questions about any meal charge communication you receive, please contact the Cafeteria Manager, Mr. Drummond 452-4386.
