Dear Eagle Families,
Happy 100th Day of School!
It’s been 100 days filled with learning, growth, and great memories. We are so grateful for the opportunity to teach and support your children each day. Thank you for sharing them with us! We look forward to all the learning and success still to come in the days ahead. Let’s make the rest of the year just as amazing!
Attendance
Our attendance is heading back in the right direction! Last week, our school-wide attendance improved to 92.74%. A big shout-out to our Kinder students for leading the way with the highest attendance at 95.66%! Thank you for prioritizing attendance—every day in school makes a difference. Let’s keep up the momentum!
Have a wonderful week!
