Elementary Parents: We do realize that there are several issues with the emails sent out concerning homeroom teacher assignments. This is our first year trying this system and we are working on correcting the errors. Please bare with us! We will be busy with a summer school field trip tomorrow, so we will try sending out emails again on Friday. #SoSorry
Correction: A system setting caused the name of the preschool teacher to be left off of all emails to parents. Preschool parents should have already received a letter from our preschool teacher. Preschool will be taught by Mrs. Tina Dern this year with the help of Ms. Lisa Willard who will serve as the Classroom Para.
Elementary Parents: Information regarding your child's homeroom teacher for the 2019-2020 school year has been emailed to each parent. If you have questions or concerns, or if you did not receive an email, please call Alton Elementary Thursday or Friday during Summer School hours. We cannot wait to see our kiddos again in August! #AltonElem
