Forgotten Items

NEW POLICY ON ITEMS BROUGHT FROM HOME

We realize that busy schedules and the rush of mornings can sometimes lead to students forgetting essential items at home! While we understand the need to drop off forgotten items on occasion, we encourage students to develop responsibility and be prepared for their school day as much as possible. To ensure a smooth process, we have established a new procedure for dropping off items for students.

When arriving at the middle school, please ring the bell and state the reason for your visit (ex: dropping off lunch box). Any item (water bottles, sports items, forgotten homework, etc.) brought from home can be dropped off at the table in the middle school lobby for the student to come pick up.

Please put your child's name on the item, and email or text your child to notify them. Students are responsible for checking for forgotten items in between classes.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in helping us maintain a safe and productive learning environment for all our students. Please feel free to contact the front office if you have any questions.
