Dear Community Members,
Thank you to all the parents who came to student-led conferences yesterday and today. 97% of our families attended the conferences. This number includes a few parents who had to schedule an appointment outside of the scheduled conferences times. Please remember you can always schedule an appointment to meet with your child’s teacher anytime you have a question or concern.
I would like to know how your conference experience was. Would you mind taking a few moments to answer this brief anonymous survey? Please complete one survey per child (i.e. if you have two children in the elementary school, please complete the same survey two times, etc.). Thank you very much.

May & June Lunch Orders
If you wish to order a school lunch for your child, you can access the elementary lunch menu here. You may use either the Payonline or the Lunch Pre-order system to order lunch for your child(ren).
The Payonline System
Payonline allows parents to charge their child’s smart cards online, order and pay for lunches, and register and pay for after school activities. Payment is completed online using a credit or debit card. You need a username and password to access this system. Please see the user guide here for help using the system. You may access Payonline here.
Lunch Pre-Order System for Cash Payments
This system allows parents to pre-order lunches for the month and pay with cash at the cash counter. Login using just the email address we have on file at AISC. Please see the user guide here. You may access the Lunch Pre-Order System here.
If you have any difficulties logging in or ordering, please notify itsupport@aisch.org.
Family Withdrawal Notification
Sadly, the end of the school year is a time when we say, “so-long” to many of our friends. If you are not returning to AISC for the next academic year, fill out the withdrawal notification form and submit to the Principal's Office / or pick up one at the office, to get the withdrawal process started.
Have a great weekend,
Kevin Hall
Elementary School Principal
