We provide a safe, supportive, and challenging learning environment in which students may achieve academic success and personal growth. Decisions are made in the best interest of students.”

Don't forget to FALL Back and set your clocks back one hour!!

Thank you to our Kindergarten teachers for providing our students and families with a great family event today! It was so nice to see everyone enjoying the activities!

Our theme for November is Gratitude and Kindness!

We will cultivate a sense of gratitude and appreciation and encourage students to practice acts of kindness. Students showing gratitude and kindness will receive a raffle ticket from their teacher.

A few reminders to Parents and Families:

• Please use the absentee line to call in when your child is sick

Veteran's Day Program

Due to the lack of space and seating, this event is for our veterans only. You may view pictures from the event on my weekly blog. Thank you to those who are donating food and items. Non perishable items may be dropped off earlier than Friday.

Parent/Teacher Conference sign ups

Please be on the lookout for a letter from your child's teacher informing you of conference sign up procedures. Teachers will provide parents with a link to sign up. Letters will be coming out soon!
