A Note From The Principal
As we wrap up another successful school year, I want to extend my gratitude to our students, parents, and staff for their hard work and dedication. It's been a year of growth, learning, and wonderful achievements, and none of it would have been possible without the incredible support from our community.
As we head into summer, I hope everyone finds time to relax and enjoy quality time with family and friends. Summer is a perfect time for new adventures, and I encourage our students to keep their minds active by reading, exploring and pursuing their interests.
I am already looking forward to the upcoming school year and all the exciting opportunities it will bring. Please mark your calendars for early August when we will begin sharing important information about the new school year. Stay tuned for updates as we get closer to our August 26th grades 1-5 first day of school!
Thank you again for a fantastic year. Have a safe and happy summer.
Best,
Melissa Holz
