Parents and guardians, we need your help. In an effort to provide as much uninterrupted instructional time in each class, I have asked our staff not to call classrooms with messages outside of the first 5 minutes of class. 

How can you help us provide uninterrupted instructional time? I'm asking for parents and guardians to limit their requests for us to deliver messages to their student only in cases of an emergency. If you need to get a message to your student, please call the main office. Non-emergency messages will be held in the office until the end of the day; each day at 2:25, students will be notified if they have a message to pick up.
