SMOOTHIES – Don’t forget to send your Croc money to school for a smoothie on Thursdays. The cost is $4.00 for a 20oz. smoothie available in two delicious flavors! Look for our car hop service at the fire lane in front of school.
INK RECYCLING:
We are collecting ink cartridges to help purchase school supplies throughout the year for our Crocs! Our school gets $2 per cartridge and businesses are a great resource for extra cartridges. The collection box is in the front office.

We are asking all parents for your help and diligence in ensuring your student comes to school “Silly Band free”. While we understand these bands are a popular item with elementary students these days, we are finding they are causing a huge disruption in our learning environment.
