District Notifications - If you are not currently receiving District notifications, you may opt-in at any time by texting the word "Yes" to 87569.

Reminders:

This is a friendly reminder that our school and breakfast opens each morning at 8:30. Students should not be dropped off at school or on our playgrounds before this time. In addition, we are asking for families to help our students build independence by letting them walk to their classroom on their own. Following dismissal, students should be picked up or go directly home. Unless under direct supervision of an adult, they cannot be on our playgrounds until after 4:15.

Morning Drop Off and Afternoon Pickup - if you need to come into the building for any reason during morning drop off, please use our guest parking spots. It is helpful to keep the traffic moving in our drop off lane. In addition, please find a parking spot when you are picking up at dismissal.

Student Directory - PALS (Parents and Lincoln School) offers our students and families an opt in directory to allow families to share information for invitations and play dates outside of school. If you would like to join or update information, please use these directions. If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Bryant!
