Elementary Parents! The start of the school year is approaching quickly and we are preparing for the return of your students . As you start to get your student ready for the new school year, we have a request. Remember those yellow and blue folders that come home daily with homework and with newsletters from the teacher? If your student's folder is in good shape from last year and you'd like to reuse them, please set them aside and bring them to Back To School Night on Thursday, Aug 14. This would be a great way for us to reduce our waste and reuse some materials that still have life in them. Now if your student's yellow or blue folder is wrecked, no worries., we'll have more for them. We're looking forward to seeing you all soon!

Back to school events!


Elementary Jump Start summer school starts on Monday, July 28 and runs to Friday, Aug 8. If you have rsvp'd that your child will be attending summer school this year, plan to have them at the bus stop by 8:15 (Old School in Elizabeth and Hanover Park District). Send students with a water bottle, we will take care of the rest. Buses will drop students off at the two designated bus stops after school by 11:40. If you are driving your student to summer school daily, have them at the elementary entrance by 8:30 and pick up at 11:30.
We are looking forward to seeing your student and kicking off the new school year! Any questions? Please call the school!
