A Message from Principal Woofter
As 2024 is quickly coming to an end, we have so much to celebrate! Thanks to the wonderful partnership between students, staff, and families, this first part of the school year has been full of engaging learning opportunities, core memory making, smiles, and laughter. We look forward to continuing the positive momentum when we all come back together on January 7!
Wishing our Archer Glen family a fabulous holiday season!
Kindly,
Sarah
