Dear Families,

As Thanksgiving approaches, I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for each of you. Your support and partnership help make our school a welcoming, nurturing place where students can learn and grow. Together, we’re building a community that values education, kindness, and connection.

With the busy winter season ahead, let’s remember that every school day counts! Consistent attendance helps students stay on track and ensures they don’t miss out on valuable learning and activities. Thank you for making school a priority.

Wishing you and your family a joyful Thanksgiving filled with warmth, laughter, gratitude.

Natalie Czarnecki

Executive Principal
