Principal Moment

Fall is here! The cooler weather is welcomed but also a good reminder to send a jacket with your child and make sure it is labeled with their name.

We appreciate your continued support in our efforts to keep all students safe by checking in at the office and wearing a visitor badge (white sticker) each time you come to the school.

Be S.M.A.R.T.

• Stay Home When Sick

• Maintain Clean Spaces

• Advocate for Distancing

• Remember Your Face Mask Every Day (And Water Bottle)

• Train on Hygiene and Safety

Elementary Attendance Policy: Nebo School District wants to work closely with students who struggle with attendance and with their parents to avoid court referrals and keep students in class. Attendance is vital to success. Thank you for your support in helping to get your children here on time every day!!

Thank you for sharing your amazing children with us each day. We are excited to learn and grow alongside them!

Morning School Access

To facilitate student safety, students enter their outside classroom doors this year. Our students are doing great with this! Although the school is open each morning at 8:00 a.m., students are expected to play outside when weather permits. We should not have students in the halls, with the exception of those eating breakfast (beginning at 8:20 a.m.)

Outside Play

As the weather begins to cool, the expectation is for student to go outside on all appropriate days. Students need to come dressed for outside play.

Student Birthdays

It is our pleasure to deliver a balloon and pencil for all of our birthdays. If you choose to deliver birthday treats to the classroom, please make sure they are purchased and individually wrapped.
