Character Parade & Fall festival

We are so excited about the events taking place in the Lower Academy this week! 

Students in grades 3-5 will be participating in the Pumpkin Book Report. If your student needs assistance decorating a pumpkin for the report please let me know. 

Students in grades K-2 will participate in the Character Parade. Families and guests are invited to line up on the sidewalk by 2:00 p.m. between the high school, front office area, and aux gym. The parade will start at 2:15 p.m. Once the parade is over, students will be in a designated area for parents to sign them out if they choose. Each teacher will have a QR code for you to scan to sign your student out. There is no need to go to the Front Office to sign out your K-5 student.

**Designated Signout Areas for Each Grade Level:**

**Kindergarten:** Parents/Guardians will go to the back door of the student's classroom, which is located within the playground fence.

 **6th-12th Grades:** If you would like to sign out a sibling/student in grades 6-12, please go to the front office. Your student will be called from their classroom to meet you.
