📣 Lost & Found Reminder! 🧥💧🎒
Our Lost and Found already has items! If your child is missing something, please have them check the Lost and Found area.
✨ Help us return items faster by labeling everything!
Please write your child’s name on the inside of jackets, backpacks, water bottles, lunch boxes, sports equipment/balls and any other personal items they bring to school. A simple label or marker can make a big difference!
Let’s work together to reunite items with their owners — and keep our Lost and Found from overflowing! 🩵
