ELEMENTARY PARENTS
AUG 27, 2021
AFTER SCHOOL: Each student needs to have a normal of what they are doing after school. This is so the teachers can get them where they need to be. If you are making changes for that day or the normal please call the office and make those arrangements.
LUNCH: If your student brings a lunch and wants a milk they will be charged 35 cents. The only way milk is free is if they purchase a lunch tray.
Thank you - if you have any questions you can call the Elementary Office at 417-788-2543 ext. 101
