DIS/DUES Families - Just a reminder that parent drop off begins each morning at 7:35 am. Students are not allowed to be dropped off until this time, as staff start their day at 7:30 am. Please do not drop your child off until staff members are present outside both in the drop-off loop and on the playground. The loop will be opened at 7:30 am for students to start arriving at school. Again, thank you for helping us to keep your child safe.

Thank you for your patience as we learn our new Converse #1 app! Today at 8:00 AM we sent out a reminder about early release on Fridays. Unfortunately, the phone call displayed an incorrect number (from Little Rock, AR) instead of our Converse #1 phone number. We've corrected this issue and future calls will show the proper number. We also accidentally sent a duplicate message at 3:20 PM. If you did not receive the notifications, please contact your child's school. Thanks again for your understanding as we learn together!
