Please plan ahead for your printing needs.  Cost is 10 cents per page; black and white only, and 20 cents for color per page.

REPLACEMENT IDS

Students are expected to wear their IDs at all times when they are on campus. The school will issue the first one for free. If the ID is lost or broken, students will need to purchase a replacement. Daily temporary ID's will be made available for $1.00, and payable by cash or My Payments Plus.  An email will be generated to the parent and payment must be made electronically.

Replacement IDs may be purchased in the Library for $5.00 which includes a lanyard and case.  Payments should be made through My Payments Plus.  The Library will receive notification that payment has been made, and a new ID will be created.

If a student only needs a lanyard or case, they are available for $1.00.
