A Note From Your Proud Principal

Dear Parents,

Just as we were excited that April showers would bring May flowers, we are excited to share the last newsletter for the 23-24 school year. It is hard to believe that the school year is almost over. As I reflect on the year we have had, all I can think of is how busy we have been and how much our kids have grown.

It has been an eventful journey so far, please pay special attention to all events happening in May. I don’t want you to miss a thing! Please be sure to read information about award days, so that we can avoid delay and confusion. We are trying our best to make it as efficient as possible that everyone has an opportunity to attend their child’s ceremony.

Finally, As we wrap up the final leg of this academic year, let's celebrate the achievements of our students, support one another, and cherish the moments we share as a school community. I appreciate each and every one of you and the role you played in our campus’ success.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support. Enjoy your summer break and time together as a family! I look forward to seeing you back here in August.

Sincerely-

Emily Allen

Your Principal

P.S. Please continue to READ with your child over the summer while working on sight words and math facts-these simple things can make coming back in the fall a much easier transition.
