Other Information

If you have not turned in your child’s $10.00 for the Weekly Reader Booklets, please do so ASAP. We need to get the books ordered, but we can’t order them until we have the money in hand.
Please make sure that your child does his/her homework each night, returns it in the homework folder provided, and brings the reading book back to school every day.
If your child is using one of the Mission of Hope backpack, please write his/her name somewhere on the outside because the children are getting them mixed up.
The school store is open on Tuesdays and Thursdays 1:15 – 2:15 pm. Items are priced from ten cents to one dollar.
