6th and 7th grade families are reminded to turn in your student registration cards to your home base teachers. We will use these registration cards to build your schedules for next school year. 

On Monday, all 6th and 7th grade students will receive their final middle school assignment letters from your homebase teachers. These letters are from the Student Assignment Office and indicate your child's school assignment for next school year. Please expect this letter to come home with your students on Monday afternoon.

All families are reminded that this Wednesday is an Early Release Day for students. We will dismiss at 12pm.  We will also be distributing third quarter report cards on Wednesday as well.
