Important Spring Fling INFO:
Our PTO is getting ready for a fun event! Here are some things to keep in mind:

2. Admittance to the Spring Fling is $2. Attached is the list of concessions. Everything will be CASH only.
3. Dismissal will look just like car rider dismissal. Parents will not be allowed in the school. Please be ready to pick up your student at 4:30pm.
