Multicultural Carnival

Reed families! We need your help! This year the carnival will be bigger and better than ever, but ONLY if we have enough volunteers.

Volunteer incentives

*For every shift you work- 4 tickets to spend on games and at the raffle

Our highest need is for game volunteers. If we don't get enough volunteers, we won't be able to have all of the games open. We have some really fun games planned this year and we are hoping to have them all open!

Why the change?

Although we expect only minor adjustments to the zones, we want to make sure you know which school your child will attend before the Open House.

Parents please remember our classes start at 8:50. If students are eating breakfast they need to be here by 8:30 to give them enough time to eat. If student are not in class by 8:50 they will be receiving a tardy on their attendance.

Doors Not open Until 8:30am

Parents, we do not have adult supervision outside before 8:30am. We also open our doors for breakfast at 8:30am. Please drop your students off at 8:30am and not earlier. With the cold weather, students are having to stand outside, without supervision, and in the cold until 8:30am. Thank you for your help and support.

Call the Office an HOUR Ahead of Time

Please call the office at least an hour ahead of time if you are picking up your student or changing how they are getting home. This ensures that we have them ready and/or can get the message to them in time.
