URGENT!!!!!!!
It’s that time of the year that all bills must be paid!  All bills, books, school property must be returned by May 10th to receive your report card or diploma.  Parent Portal accounts will be deactivated for those with outstanding bills.   Parents – please pay your bill ahead and avoid the rush!  May has 12 days for grades PK-11 and 10 days for seniors.   If you know that your child/children will be missing any days - subtract those days. Breakfast is $1.95 for PK-12; Lunch is $2.55 for PK-5th, and $2.80 for 6-12th.  Ala Carte items are still the same price.  Please multiply out what you anticipate your child will be eating, add that to the bill you will receive any day now.   Questions about your account – contact Gayle gayle.bechen@k12.sd.us
