Important Notes -

We are hoping to have all students in-person full-time for the final quarter of the school year. COVID cases are decreasing, and most of our staff members will have both vaccines by then. If there is still a medical concern for someone in your family, please contact Mrs. Whitehair directly. We are planning to have updated quarantine guidelines from the county soon, also. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND COOPERATION this year. It is so nice to see things begin to turn around!!

Enrollment for returning students is the week of March 1 – 5. Families returning their enrollment form or contacting the school by March 5 with plans for next year earn a NO UNIFORM coupon (EXTRA RECESS for preschool). Fifth graders returning their record transfer form next week will also earn a coupon.


Mark your calendars!! The auction has been moved to July 24. THANK YOU to those who have given cash donations or items. We will continue solicitations and hope to have them done by spring break.


Special All School Auction Project - "I SPY" Table. Each child is bringing home a baggie with instructions for returning an item for this project. Please read the note and help your child return an item to his/her teacher. THANKS!


Students are encouraged to bring money for the Monday and Wednesday mass collections, even if just a coin or two. Mass collections in March go to the Rice Bowl Charities.

We collected over $200 for the Food Bank on Tiger Days! God bless all for your generosity!



Family Picnic Lunch Day Details - Friday, March 5


  • Students are invited to bring a sack lunch on Friday or they may sign up to get one from the lunchroom.

  • Students may also have a no uniform day.  

  • Immediate family members may join their child(ren) using the following schedule:

Students with last names starting with O - Z will eat on the playground 11:15 - 11:45

Students with last names starting with A - N will eat on the playground 11:50 - 12:20

  • Parents - feel free to bring lawn chairs or blankets for your picnic. 

  • Students who do not have family members attending may bring a beach towel or small blanket to sit on.  They will eat with classmates and/or staff members.  

  • It is important that family groups social distance from other families during this event.  Because we have to separate groups for recess, please don't allow your child to play on the equipment during picnic time.  Those finishing early may walk on the walking trail.
