LUNCH VISITS- For the 2020-2021 school year: At this time, Lunch time visits are on hold. We are continuing to develop plans in response to Covid-19.  During a typical school year, lunch visits begin after Labor Day. Due to limited space, Lunch time visitation will be for PARENTS only (no siblings) on Mondays and Fridays only. Please allow plenty of time to sign in at the front office and get a visitor's pass. 

 

We love siblings under elementary school age, but for safety reasons siblings are not included in class parties, lunch visits, volunteering, class visits, or field trips.
