August 2

Dear Parents,

I hope you're enjoying the last few days of summer vacation with your children! Our faculty and staff are excited to welcome all students at the K–8 Meet the Teacher event this Monday, August 5, from 3:30-5:30pm. Parents of preschool students should refer to the specific sign-up slots provided by Preschool Director Krissy Bileski, which include a morning slot from 8:00-11:00am or an afternoon slot from 3:30-5:30pm, as mentioned in the email communication.

Your FIRST STOP will be the MPR to ensure your RenWeb and FACTS accounts are complete and that you have filled out the following back-to-school forms:

• After-School Care Registration (All students MUST be registered to receive teacher assignment)
• Handbook Agreement Form
• Health Information Form
• Financial Agreement
• Chromebook Agreement Grades 6–8

Once all required items are complete, you will receive an envelope with your child’s new class assignment. You may then proceed to your child’s classroom to meet the teacher. We encourage you to bring your child’s classroom supplies at this time to ease the hustle and bustle on the first day.

Please remember that the first couple of weeks of school can be a bit hectic as everyone adjusts to their morning routines. Let’s all be role models for our children by driving with care and patience. Here are a few friendly reminders to help with everyone's school parking experience:

1. Have patience when driving in the parking lot.
2. Give yourself time to park and walk your child to the front gate.
3. Dropping students off in the parking lot is prohibited.
4. K-8 parents should consider using the efficient carpool service.
5. Parking spots marked with signs are for designated parties only.
6. Consider parking in the south church parking lot.

I am incredibly excited to see everyone's smiling faces eager for another amazing school year filled with learning, friendships, prayer, adventures, and more. Enjoy your last weekend of summer!
