| Daymon Terrace Drop-Off Hint: The Daymon Terrace Drop-Off Zone is most heavily used from 8:40 to 8:55am. In these 15 minutes, there is a wait to enter the Drop-Off Zone and by 8:45am the second bell has rung and school has begun. Remember, the Drop-Off Zone is staffed as early as 8:30am. Consider coming a little earlier: you won't have to wait in line and your children will start school on time!

| Healthy Bite from the Nutrition and Wellness Committee: We hope your children enjoyed taking a Healthy Bite out of March with the apple at lunch distributed last Wed courtesy of Whitson's Food Service. Remember: just because National Nutrition Month ended doesn't mean we shouldn't be healthy each month. Little changes to your diet can add up to big changes over time.
