To help maintain a focused, safe, and positive learning environment for all students, we are asking that small toys, collectibles, and fidgets remain at home.
Recently, these items have become a distraction during our learning time and have also led to issues with students playing with, trading, and taking items that do not belong to them.
Please help us by checking backpacks and reminding your child to keep personal toys and fidgets at home.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out.
Thank you for your support and partnership.
