Drummond Public School

The government shutdown may be negatively impacting some families in our community. We want to reassure families that even if SNAP benefits are temporarily disrupted, your child will continue to receive free or reduced priced meals based on their current eligibility status. Please know that any family who has experienced a change in income or household situation for any reason during the school year may complete and submit a free and reduced lunch application. The well-being of every student in the district is a priority for us. Please let us know if you need assistance filling out an application. Lunch App: https://aptg.co/6pn8tS

Several students have entered the pumpkin decorating contest! Judging will be completed by 8:00 in the morning, so feel free to take your child's pumpkin home after the PAWS Assembly if you need to. Arrangements need to be made to pick up your pumpkins by the end of the school day. Please know that students will not be allowed to take them home on the busses. Unfortunately, any pumpkins left at school will be thrown away. Have a safe and Happy Halloween!
