Health Office Reminder 

If your child has brought home any clothing borrowed from the Health Office, please return it when you can. We keep a small supply of extra clothes on hand for students who need them, and our collection is starting to run low. Thank you!

Drop Off & Pick Up Reminder 
 
Mornings can get quite busy during school drop-off, especially on late-start Wednesdays. While waiting to drop off your student, please keep the following in mind:
  • Keep crosswalks clear.
  • Do not pass in the designated “No Passing Zone.”
  • Only right-hand turns are permitted into the parking lot before and after school.
  • If you are using car drop-off, please drop students off in the designated area near the Waller main entrance.
Thank you for helping us ensure all students arrive safely to school!
