  • Complete all necessary forms and update family information by logging in to Family Access. Watch for an important email that will prompt you to log in.
  • Prepare for your child's first day with items on our Student Supply List. For children not yet in kindergarten, complete the Health Appraisal Form with your child's doctor.
  • Order school lunch online through Boonli (opens August 25).
  • Add drop-in early care or Friends Club to your child's schedule through Boonli (opens August 25).
  • Become familiar with our Family Handbook. Be sure to read about how to navigate carline starting on page 18.
  • Get in the habit of reading Waypoints, our weekly newsletter. It is updated and emailed to families every Friday afternoon.
