Lunch Visitor info – please read throughly

Visitors will be allowed to each lunch with their own child on Fridays ONLY. There will be a limit of 2 Lunch Visitors per student. Students may NOT bring friends, cousins, etc. to eat with lunch visitors.

Outside food (any food from a restaurant/fast food, etc.) will ONLY be allowed on Fridays as well. If you choose to bring lunch for your child on FRIDAYS only, you will be allowed to place the lunch on a cart inside the main hallway.   Lunches will need to be marked with your child’s name. Personnel will check the carts prior to the start of lunch. We will not call into classrooms to notify students.

Water Bottles

 

Please make sure your student brings some type of nonbreakable water bottle to school each day. We now have touchless bottle fillers installed where students can refill their bottles throughout the day.  NO GLASS BOTTLES will be allowed for the safety of all students as our floors are concrete.

We appreciate the district and our maintenance workers for installing these touchless bottle fillers at multiple locations on both primary and intermediate campuses. This will help greatly to keep our students as germ-free as possible.
