Message from Principal Tuupo - Drop-off and pick-up reminders
At Meet the Teacher, you received dashboard signs for your student. These signs have your student's name and grade level and are used during our student pick-up procedures. The sign must be displayed in the passenger side of your windshield when you come to pick up your student each day.
