A Note from the SAE Library

Dear SAE families,

Hope you are enjoying reading new books from our school library. Please help remind your child to keep their library books in their backpack everyday. You can identify our school books by the barcode sticker on the back cover. This will help us to have more books for all students to read throughout the year. Happy reading!

Warmly, Ms. T

Parent Car Line : Drop-off and Pick-Up

Please help our Parent Car Line run safely and smoothly at drop-off + pick-up!

Parents dropping off students by car should pull into the lot at the side of our building in a single line. Parents, please pull all the way up and do not leave your vehicles.

Children should exit onto the sidewalk on the passenger side of the car.

Thank you for helping to keep our students safe!
