A Facilities Master Plan completed last year identified $80 million in needed renovations and repairs.

Winter Weather Reminders

Winter has arrived! As a reminder, students will go outside for recess when the "feels like" temperature is 10 degrees or higher. Please be sure to send your students with boots, snow pants, jackets, hats, and gloves any time the forecast calls for possible snow. Please do not send students to school with disposable hand warmers as there is some risk of students burning their skin.

As a reminder, please review our school closing information.
