Memo: Mrs. Di

Dear Parents,

   
 We are approaching the end of our school session. I know that our children are excited that summer is approaching and they will have more time on their hands. It is really important that we keep them on track right now. A last minute drop could hurt their success rate. After the Fair weekend we will only have 3.5 weeks left as a whole.

     It is important thatall fees, fines, and tuition obligationsto school, Parents’ Club, andMediaCenterbe taken care of immediately. Students showing any monetary deficiency will not be able to participate in exams, May field trips, closing ceremonies, and will not receive emailed report cards until all is paid. Please contact the school office with any concerns.
