Dear Scott Families,

As always, we're excited to bring you all the latest news, updates, and reminders from our vibrant school! You won't want to miss out on anything that is coming up. From our Penny Wars fundraiser to the 5th Grade Informational Parent Night, we have a lot to share! Wishing you all a fantastic week ahead, and be sure to enjoy the beautiful weather while it lasts!

We are thrilled to report that our recent Coding and Robotics Night was a huge success! We want to extend our sincere thanks to everyone who worked tirelessly to provide such a valuable experience for our students. From coding challenges to robotics demonstrations, our students had the opportunity to explore a wide range of exciting and engaging activities. we invite you to check out this video of the event, created by our very own drone-flying Mr. Lumbreras. It offers a fantastic glimpse into the excitement and energy of the evening and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did! Thank you once again to everyone who contributed to the success of this event. We look forward to many more exciting opportunities for our students in the future!
