From the principal
Hi parents,
Our fall break is coming quickly. See below for details on the dates.
As a reminder, the district has sent out an email survey to parents. We would appreciate your input. We want the district to know what we need to improve upon but we also need them to know all the great things our families have to say about our school/district.
If you have not yet completed your impact aid survey, please complete that too. Completion of that survey secures impact aid funds for our district.
Veterans Day is next month. Help us show off your veteran by sending in a picture (4 x 6) of your veteran to share on our hero bulleting board!
We are #futureready!
