GATOR BYTE - VOLUME 9 - OCTOBER 30, 2022

We hope all our Gators have a fun and safe Halloween! 

Here are some reminders about tomorrow's parade at school:

  • Parking will be a challenge. Please consider carpooling.
  • The entire parade lasts 10-15 minutes.
  • Kids will exit the back door. Walk down the parking lot side of the building. Walk around the outside of the fenced basketball lot. Then back in the front door.
  • If you plan on bringing your child home early, you MUST enter it into School Dismissal Manager by 11:00 am. After the parade, we will call your child down for dismissal as prearranged.
  • No need to come in and sign them out. That will be reflected in SDM.
