Special recognition to Hayden Anderson in 6th grade for passing 15 lessons. He will start this math year with bonus points. Special mention also to Logan Wieseler in Kindergarten for passing 10 lessons this summer. Additional thanks goes to all the parents and guardians for encouraging the kids to open the Imagine Math app this summer!

School starts tomorrow! Yay! We just have a few reminders before the first day: -All students who are being picked up or dropped off before/after school need to go through Door 4 in the commons area. There will be staff there to guide students to and from their classrooms. (This is to separate the traffic from the area where the buses stop outside the elementary doors) -Especially with the new pick-up and drop-off situation, please let your bus driver and teachers know whether or not your child will be riding the bus.

Don't forget that tonight is back-to-school family night from 5:30-7:30 p.m.! Bring your school supplies, get your schedules, find your lockers, and get ready for the school year! There will also be hot dogs in the cafeteria and the Booster Club has their clothing cart set up so you can get some new Royals gear! 📚 ✏️
