📞Update Student Contact Information
Your action is required. Each year, families are required to verify student emergency information and submit updated health information. This ensures we have a current home address, phone number, emergency contact and health information on file. All of these items help us keep students safe while at school and are essential for schools to notify you quickly. Here’s how to make your updates.
