Please know that my door is always open. If you have questions, ideas, or concerns, feel free to reach out. I’m honored to serve as your principal and look forward to working together to make this a joyful and memorable year for all of our students.

    All schools in our district use ParentSquare for school communication primarily with email, text, and app notifications.

    ParentSquare automatically syncs with our student information system to generate an account for each parent, using their preferred email address and phone number. We encourage parents to access their accounts so they can download the mobile app and update their preferences on when and how they are notified.

    ParentSquare is a safe, secure, and modern approach to communication and collaboration between school and home. Learn more and get started today by viewing this ParentSquare HELP web page.
