News & Information  



Absences: Please report your child’s absence each day they are not in school by calling the attendance hotline at 585-2430; press 1 to leave a message and let us know the reason they are out of school. If a notification is not received from the parent within three days, absences will always be marked as “unexcused” - thank you for your cooperation! Drop Off Reminders: Please remember to utilize only the designated Drop Off area near the Kindergarten playground, unless you intend to park appropriately in the parking lot and walk your child to the gate. We are still seeing a lot of parents dropping their children off near the office or beside the cafeteria, or sending them across the parking lot without parking. It is imperative that students are not dropped off in this way as there is no supervision to ensure student safety. Additionally, traffic laws must be adhered to (such as not using handicapped parking without appropriate need/sign, not stopping in the middle of the parking lot to let students out of the car, etc.). Please support us with your cooperation in this matter for the safety of your and all other students and staff on campus. Thank you so much. Campus Security: No visitors are allowed on campus without checking in at the office and receiving a visitor’s badge. This policy is in effect from 7:45am -3:30pm and pertains to all points of entry on campus! Parents are not permitted to enter through the Kindergarten gate to escort their child to class. Anyone wishing to do so must first sign in at the office with a picture identification. Thank you. If you would like to receive the Frontier Dispatch by email, please notify Mrs. Bailey by sending an email to: [email protected].

Parents and families: Now that the weather is getting warmer many of our students have left jackets and sweatshirts on campus and are forgetting to check the lost and found! Please remind your students to check for their lost items, or stop by the campus so you can check before summer is here and they are forgotten about and donated! Mr .Raven
