DO WE HAVE YOUR CORRECT INFORMATION?
During the heat wave we sent out a series of calls. If you did not get any of them, then we
probably don’t have your correct contact information. It is extremely important that we have the
most up to date contact information.
Please check Parent Portal to verify that your information is
correct. If is not correct, please
contact the school and give us your updated information.
