Spring Break is Almost Here!!
Our last day of school before Spring Break is Thursday, April 2. School resumes on Monday, April 13. If
you will be traveling and know your student will miss additional school days, please send your child to
school with a note containing their name, the date(s) they will be absent, and your signature. The note should be
brought to the main office. The sooner we get notice of the absence, the better! If you forget to send a note, just
call the Attendance Line and let us know which days your student will miss school. If the office isn’t notified of an
absence, the student will be marked absent and unexcused for all days missed.
