Sack Lunch

On Monday, January 3rd, students need to bring a sack lunch. Cereal and bananas will be served for Breakfast. The Cafeteria will reopen on Tuesday, January 4th.

'Tis the Season

...for the thiefs to be out! As horrible as that sounds, too many people have fallen victim to car break ins, house break ins, purse snatchings, and other cruminal mischief. Make sure you do not leave any valuables visible in your car when you are going in to drop off or pick up your children. Last year, we had many break ins and many purses were stolen. Be proactive!


Have a safe and happy Holiday Season!

Information about the Vendor Issue

The following is information from Stacy Brezina regarding the issue with vendors and why we are asking for parents to help out with snacks and film developing. Please help support your child's classroom!

PAC Board

Due to changing of vendors, Zebra Zone is no longer able to shop at Sam’s or Wal-Mart for snacks. We are able to order through Food Service; however this limits our choices for the children. If you would like to donate a snack to your child’s classroom, please see your child’s teacher for a sign up sheet.


Also due to the vendor changes, there is no vendor for film to be developed. This is a problem for the teachers portfolio work. If you are willing to help your child’s teacher with film development, please see them for a sign up sheet.

Stacy Brezina

Watch your valuables!!!

A car got broken into this afternoon. Please take your purses inside and keep valuables out of plain view. This has happened a few times in the last month.
