The best way to prevent losing items is to label all student belongings. Sweaters and outerwear are the most common items in our lost and found. All of these can be easily labeled with a sharpie marker. Please take time to label all of your child’s belongings to ensure that we are able to identify lost items, so they don’t end up in the lost and found pile. AMPA Fundraiser Purdy’s Chocolatier and Blue Grass Nursery If you ordered chocolate from the Purdy’s or poinsettia's from Blue Grass, your items will be available for pick up this Friday, Dec 13 from 1-2pm. The pickup spot this year will be just inside the front entrance of the school and through the doors directly to the left (school staff room).
