The consent form, which includes a front and back page, must be completed and returned to the school by Tuesday, September 8, 2026, for your student to receive the Flu Mist vaccine on campus during our vaccine clinic. Please review this packet, complete both the front and the back of the consent form and return it to the school by 9/8/25 if you wish to take advantage of this convenient opportunity. IF YOU NEED AN ADITTIONAL FORM IT CAN BE PICKED UP AT THE FRONT OFFICE.
This year, our health department will be administering the nasal Flu Mist vaccine to every age group of students. No student will receive a vaccine without a properly completed consent form.
This year’s pageant will be held on Friday, October 9th, and is open to all Wallace Lake girls in grades K–8.

Our parking lot opens at 1:00 PM for dismissal.
🚗 IMPORTANT: When entering the car rider line, please REMAIN in the lane you originally pull into unless directed by a staff member. Changing lanes creates safety concerns and slows the dismissal process. Staying in your lane helps keep our car rider line organized, safe, and moving efficiently. Parents will need to remain in their vehicles during car rider arrival and dismissal.
🎓 Middle school students are not released from class until 1:29 PM. If you are picking up a middle school student, there is no need to arrive before that time.
⚠️ As always, please drive slowly and carefully throughout our parking lot. The safety of our students, staff, and families is our top priority.
Thank you for helping us keep dismissal safe and smooth for everyone! 💙💛
