Grandparents should arrive on campus at 7:55 am and park either at the baseball fields or in the bus lanes. Grandparents should go directly to the lunchroom where they will sign in, buy their breakfasts ($4 each by cash or check only--please have correct change--no big bills) and then be directed to their grandchild's classroom where they will meet them for breakfast. If you have grandchildren in multiple classrooms, plan to spend 15 minutes with each one. Breakfast in the morning for grandparents/ grandkids will be from 8-830 am. We look forward to seeing our grandparents on campus tomorrow!
