Each Kindergarten classroom uses a

rainbow behavior chart. Check and sign
your child’s daily folder nightly.
 Volunteering in the

All volunteers must complete an application for a

background check. Even if you have already been

All volunteers must sign-in at the office before

volunteering in the classrooms.
