Air Conditioning Update

Over the weekend, electricians and construction crews were working hard to get several classrooms connected to their new ACs. As of right now, we have 6 of our hottest classrooms with air that is working. They were tested on Saturday! Tomorrow, crews will be testing all units to see if our electricity can take all units operating at the same time! I will keep you posted!

Classroom Parties

Parents, if you wish to send cupcakes, or treats in for birthdays, please seek Administrator Approval at least 1 day before. Some students have sensitive dietary restrictions, so we want to make sure we provide you with alternative options for students who have restrictions due to allergies.
