Are you ready FOR A NEW YEAR? let's get you there!

---

Important To-Dos

• Get connected! Join Membership Toolkit and become part of our secure on-line community! Once you are signed up, you’ll also get our monthly newsletters, weekly reminders and volunteer requests!

• Get your school supplies! See the list per grade level here. Note the pages specifically for self-contained classes by grade level and honors pull-out supplies! If you ordered an EduKit prior to June 15, it will be delivered to your student's classroom for you. If you ordered after June 15, it will delivered to your home before August 5. Bring your supplies to Meet the Teacher on Monday, August 8th!

• Set up your student's EZSchoolPay meal account so they can purchase breakfast and/or lunch. NEW FOR '22! School meals will no longer be offered for free. That was a COVID silver lining which has now expired. If your student purchases a meal at school, make your life easier and sign up for a EZSchoolPay account! Note, your student will need to know their student ID number when paying for meals. You can find student ID numbers in Infinite Campus, on the Today tab, just select the desired student and it will show next to their photo.

• Register with the District to be a chaperone for field trips here. To volunteer in the classroom/school, be sure to fill out the pink Volunteer form you can pick up at the front office.

• Make a plan for afternoon pick-up! Will you be in the car lane, or walking to the flagpole to meet your student? Remember, NO parking in the parking lots for drop-off or pick-up! Please park in the neighborhood. Need a reminder of arrival and dismissal procedures? Visit our FAQs! 

• Check out Student Handbook for dress code requirements and other essentials! Closed-toe shoes are required. Water bottles and hats are always recommended (it's toasty Arizona!). Students should always pack a snack!

• Contribute to your teacher's Classroom Support Fund! You'll hear more details from your teacher on Curriculum Night. 

• Own a business, restaurant/venue or specialize in a professional service...or know of a really cool person that does? We're always IMMENSELY appreciative of members of our community that we can partner with for in-kind support, Parents Night Out event involvement and more! Please email president@sskypto.com.
