School Supply Lists

We provide school supplies for our students. Families do not need to purchase supplies for their children.  There is a Student Supplies Fee that covers the cost of these supplies.   We ask that parents send a water bottle, a nutritious snack for recess, and a packed lunch if they stay over the noon hour.  We do not require indoor shoes to be sent until the snowy winter months. 

School Calendar

We are a school that follows a traditional calendar. For details, view our school calendar page.
