Our outstanding teachers and staff seek to make positive and meaningful connections with students to ensure they have a high-quality education, a nutritious school meal and a safe ride to and from school. We also count on you, our families, to help address issues and communicate if there are questions or concerns that arise throughout the year.

At the Aug. 25 school board meeting, the board approved a policy to address negative meal accounts. The policy is a new requirement from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), which oversees school meals. This simply puts our current practices into school board policy to meet the USDA requirement. Please review the policy to see how negative meal charges are handled throughout the school year.

As you prepare for the first day of school, it’s a good idea to review the programs and devices that will be used throughout the academic year.
