  • We will host a school visitation day on Wed, Sept 2 from 2:00-4:00pm. During that time, students and families are welcome to:
    • Review student schedules
    • Visit classrooms and locate lockers
    • Bring in and store school supplies in lockers
  • Our first day of school will be Tuesday, September 8, 2026.
School Supplies Information:
We ask students to bring the following supplies to school during the first week:
  • 2” Binder, 4 Folders, Pens & Pencils, Highlighters
  • If any additional items are needed for specific classes, we will work with the teacher for the school to supply as many items as possible.
  • Our goal for all students/families is to purchase a very small number of school supplies.
 The school will supply the following items to students on the first day of school:
  • Chromebook & Charger (students were given one to keep last year), Calculator (if needed), 1 Subject Notebook, 2 Folders, Pen, School Agenda/Planner
Backpacks, please note: Students should purchase a mesh or see-through backpack, especially if they would like to carry items throughout the school day. A limited number of mesh bags will be available for students to use throughout the school year. Small purses/handbags may also be carried for personal items only. Normal type backpacks are generally not allowed during the school day for safety precautions. However, a normal backpack may be carried to and from school/bus to the student’s locker and left in the locker until the end of the day. Students are encouraged to use their locker throughout the school day to store their books/belongings and to keep their items secure.
