CONCESSION CARDS
Please remind your children if they bring cash to school for a concession card to bring the money to the office as soon as they arrive or nutrition break. The office is too congested during the lunch hour to make the cards during that time. The students are aware of this as well. It has been on announcements since the beginning of the school year. Concession cards can be purchased on School Cash as well, School Cash is ALWAYS the preferred method of payment. Here is the link to School to set up an account: https://nlsd.schoolcashonline.com.
