Love Our School Events? Help Keep Them Going! π
Passport Around the World, Fall Festival, and Evening on the Green bring our community together and create wonderful memories for our kids, but they can't happen without volunteers. We need new leaders and committee members to keep these traditions going. Have a favorite event you'd love to help organize? We'd love to hear from you!

Keep the Bike Lane Clear on Aughinbaugh Way! π²
The emergency parking area on the east side of Aughinbaugh Way only has room for about three cars. We've seen cars trying to squeeze into this space and blocking students biking to school.
Please do not stop or park in the bike lane, even briefly. Our students need a clear, safe path to school. If the parking area is full, please find another place to park.
Please share with family and caregivers, and review Squirt's Safety Patrol Guidelines. Our kids are watching the example we set!
