Oops! It was brought to our attention that Skyward was charging $3.25 for a student lunch. However, the price for lunch is $3.40, which was communicated at the beginning of the year. Moving forward all student lunches will be charged $3.40. We are sorry for the confusion.


Join us for our next Viking Parent Education Series on February 19th from 5:30-6:30. Pizza will be served and child care will be available. See the attached flyer for more details. Hope to see you there!
