 Thank you for your support!

I am still missing some Permission Forms, and Class Disclosures etc from a few students.  It is so important that I have a copy of these on record, and that you AND your student have read, and understand the ins and outs of class and school rules etc. 

If you see your student’s name under any of the following items listed, PLEASE make every effort complete them and return the last page of the class disclosure tomorrow, Wednesday, September 5th. 

Please understand that if you have not signed the YEARLY permission  form, your student WILL NOT be able to go on any field trips or participate in any of our class parties etc.

Thanks so much for your continued help and support. Lets make this year the best at Quest!!!

Dear Parents

• We are in communication with the State to determine the feasibility of serving breakfast at Quest. Students who qualify for free/reduced lunch would also qualify for free/reduced breakfast.

• The estimated cost for all other students is $1.50 (this is subject to change).

• In order to determine interest in this endeavor, we are sending out a quick, two-question survey. We just need to know how often, if ever, your child would eat breakfast, and the number of children in your family we would serve. Please click here to answer these questions. Thanks.

This is just a reminder that this Friday is a short day and $1.00 dress down day. The elementary will begin at 8:30am and end at 1:30pm. Below are the guidelines for dress down Fridays: 

On dress down days, students are still expected to dress in a manner that positively impacts the learning environment. Clothing must be modest, tasteful, and it must not compromise safety standards for our students. The following standards include:

• Shorts and skirts need to be consistent with QA Uniform Policy
• No tank tops
• No baggy pants
• No bare or stocking feet
• No open toe or heeled shoes
• No clothing which displays obscene, vulgar, lewd, or sexually explicit words, messages or pictures
• No clothing that exposes bare midriffs, buttocks or undergarments
• No clothing assumed as gang related
• If questions arise, the school administration, as the Board of Directors’ designee, has the authority to determine if a student’s dress is in keeping with this policy.

Tomorrow is the last day to let us know if you want to exchange your gray quarter-zip pullover for a red one (elementary) or a blue one (jr. high). Please only fill out this form if you have NOT done so previously (click here). Thanks.
