Principal's Message
Dear Parents and Guardians,
I hope you're doing well! As we reach the middle of the school year, I want to remind you how important regular attendance is for your child's success. Being in school every day helps them learn and grow alongside their classmates.
This Friday, February 28th, we'll be sending home the Middle of the Year report cards. Please take some time to review your child's progress and celebrate their achievements.
We're also excited to announce that our Scholastic Book Fair is happening this week, from February 24th to February 28th. We invite you to visit the fair after school with your child to explore a wonderful selection of books. It's a great opportunity to foster a love of reading together.
Spring Break is just three weeks away! Let's make the most of this time by ensuring our students are present and engaged in their learning.
Thank you for your continued support.
Warm regards,
Mrs. Herrera
Principal
