Medications
The last day to pick up medications in the Health Room is Friday, June 3rd, at 12:00 noon. Emergency medications (for example Epi pens, inhalers, etc.) should be picked up on the last day students attend school. School District policy requires us to destroy medications that are not picked up by June 3rd at 12:00 noon. For safety reasons, we cannot send any medications home with students.
Chromebook Returns
Students must have chargers and Chromebooks at school during the week of May 23rd for end-of-year check-in. Students in 1st-5th grades will turn in these items on their regular library day. Virtual students will return Chromebooks and chargers on Monday, June 6th, from 9:00-11:00 am at the bus entrance. Parents should insure that all Chromebooks are fully charged and updated to the latest version of Chrome. Students should report any damage or repairs needed when Chromebooks are returned. If a charger is lost or damaged, parents should be prepared to pay $31 on the day of return. If Chromebooks are missing cases, the cost is $25.
