From our Principal
Dear Almond Families,
It was so much fun hosting primary and upper grade students in our two Virtual Bingo games yesterday! To be able to see so many different smiling faces and get an opportunity to connect really filled my heart. Thank you to those of you who were able to participate. We will certainly have to have another Almond Eagle game night! I have included a picture of the upper grade Bingo game below for you all to enjoy.
Here’s to playing games and connecting with our Almond Ohana!

Childcare available for Essential Service Workers
Have you heard the good news? While school is out, Champions is here to provide child care for families who work in essential service roles during the coronavirus crisis. As our country is stopping normal routines-like sending kids to school-to help flatten the curve, many families are left without the critical child care support they need to do their jobs.
Champions is consistently staying up to date on the rapidly changing recommendations and policies from government agencies, including the CDC and childcare licensing. We have updated our safety standards and operating guidelines so that we can provide a warm and welcoming environment that allows both parents and children to feel safe and healthy.
Here is a video we created for our parents in our sites that are currently open for essential service families. We wanted to make sure our families see our health and safety protocols in action.
