Drop off and Pick Up

Please continue to be patient at drop-off and pick-up. Our number one concern is safety. Be aware of everyone around you and your cars. Please refrain from using your cell phone…especially to text or read emails. (Since 5th Grade recess is at the end of the day, the students will exit through the fenced playground area to enter the carpool area.) Thank you for your support and patience.

We have a website available to parents and students about the new Utah Testing: Sage. Please take some time to get familiar with it. http://sageportal.org/ – Student user name and password: student’s lunch number is used for both…
