Transportation: In order to avoid confusion, please contact the elementary school office with any transportation changes. Even if you’ve contacted your child’s teacher on remind or via email, you also need to write a note in your child’s planner or contact the office at (785)484-2455. Thank you for your understanding!
Halloween 🎃: All treats that are brought to school, including Halloween treats, need to be store-bought and prepackaged. Please do not open the package to decorate the treats at home. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter and for keeping our children safe from food allergies. The students will be in the class learning until 1:45. Parties will start at 2:00. In addition, we are asking that all parents leave the school building at 2:30 so we can line the students up for the parade. The parade will begin at 2:40. The parade will go down Main Street to the Post Office, turn around, and comeback to the elementary school. *The parade could be canceled if it is raining or the temperature is below 45 degrees* For the safety of all the children, following the parade, all students from preschool through 4th will reenter the building prior to any parents coming inside. Once the students are safely in their classrooms, we will open the front door and parents may go to their child’s classroom and sign them out.
In accordance with school policies, we will follow the guidelines of NO replica of weapons: firearms, knives, swords, chains, clubs, pitchforks, or anything that could be used as a weapon. No rollerblades will be allowed. No pets of any kind will be allowed.
