Lunch Charges

As we approach the end of the school year, please keep a close eye on the balance in your child's lunch account. It is important that accounts be kept up to date. Students owing $8 or more will only receive peanut butter and jelly sandwiches until their account is paid up. Chartwells will be sending e-mails to parents, as well as notes in the Friday folders. Parents also have access to account balances through Skyport. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Yearbooks

Yearbooks are available on-line for $8 at www.geskusphoto.com/yearbookorders.
