Tomorrow (Tuesday, January 13th) there will be a construction crew at Highland to repair a burst water line. This will necessitate some changes to our morning drop-off. The drop-off area in the parking lot will be reduced drastically to allow for construction vehicles. We encourage you to utilize the bus zone drop-off area (be courteous to the buses and others). Because it is a small area for drop-off please be aware that you will not be able to park or wait, it will be a stop, drop, and keep on rolling situation.
Should this repair go into the afternoon we will send out alternate instructions for pick-up, though most likely those students who normally wait near the dumpsters will need to wait near the flag pole.
See the image to see exactly where the construction zone is and how much of the area will need to be blocked off.
Thanks for your assistance and patience as we all work together.

- Join us on Tuesday for the PTA meeting at 10AM.
- Thursday is Acadeince testing: Reading for students in grades 4-6 and math for students in Kindergarten and 1st.
- Don't forget to wear your school swag on Friday to show your school spirit.
Please add Monday the 19th to your calendar. There will be no school in recognition of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.







If we have an inside morning the Kindergarten, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd graders go to the lunchroom. The 4th, 5th, and 6th graders go to the gym. They will wait in these areas until the first bell rings.










We are all so excited to be back at school. We want to keep all of our students as healthy as possible. Please take note of the "How Sick is Too Sick" flyer and help us follow these guidelines when children are sick.
"The Utah County Health Department wants to remind families that one of the best ways to protect your child and others from the flu is by getting the annual flu shot. The vaccine helps reduce the spread of illness and keeps our classrooms safe and healthy."
You can reach out to our school nurse Amy Anderson (amylanderson@alpinedistict.org) if you have any health related questions.
Thanks and have a great afternoon.


We look forward to seeing you all back at school tomorrow.
