Dear Parents/Guardians,

As we step into October, I want to take a moment to reflect on the positive energy and enthusiasm that has filled our school this year. Our students are engaging in exciting learning experiences, and I am so proud of their growth and achievements.

This month, we have several events planned, including Carnival (tonight), Grandparents' Day, parent-teacher conferences, sporting events, and Halloween. There is a lot going on these next few weeks so be sure to keep up with our upcoming events in the newsletter, Facebook page, and/or Thrillshare.

Thank you for your ongoing partnership and dedication to our school. Elementary students should have received a parent teacher conference sign up sheet. Please make sure to turn those back in so Liz can get those scheduled and get your time to you. If your child is in grades 6-12, you can just pop in when you want between 1:00-7:00 on October 24th.

Here’s to a wonderful month ahead!

Please reach out if you have any questions, feedback, or concerns.

Warm regards,

Ashley Musick

I have loved seeing kids in the office for positive things! I have had preschool all the way up to a senior in my office for something good! They have a variety of prizes to choose from when they come to my office and spin the wheel--coupons, candy, snack, etc. Snack has been pretty popular!
