Our families receive important messages by voice call, text message, and email based on contact information provided through online registration. If your contact information has changed, contact your child's school to make sure it is up-to-date. This is how we communicate school closings and delays.
Many times, other community members or businesses would also like to receive these communications. They can be added to our call list by completing the form at the link below:
