THANK YOU to Thanksgiving Heroes, Teachers for Hope, Utah Food Bank and Five12 for food resources this holiday season.  Thank you to the Assistance League of Salt Lake and Jordan Credit Union for clothing and shoe resources. Thank you to our wonderful community of parents for entrusting our school faculty and staff each day to teach and nurture your children.  

INSIDE MORNINGS – Winter weather is here, and with it, there are lots of questions regarding our procedures regarding cold weather concerns.  Students are expected to wait outside in the morning and go outside to recess throughout the day unless: the air quality is poor, if the temperature feels like it is below 22 degrees Fahrenheit, or if the precipitation is such that students will get soaked if they stay outside.   If administration calls an inside morning, we open the hallway doors and have students go right to class when the bus arrives or they are dropped off.  If you need to bring your student to school at 7:30 am consistently, there are openings in our morning program.  Contact Ms. Pua if interested.
