Hi Honeybee Families, Welcome to the 23-24 school year! We are super excited to welcome our honeybees back and begin the school year! Our theme this year will be Working from the Core to Inspire Students Through Words, Deeds, and Actions! We will focus on how our core values impact what we do for students and our Honeybee Community.
Take time to develop 3-5 beliefs that speak to what you value as a family and start working from the core!

If you have students with different last names, you may choose a time that aligns with the last name of either of your children.
We look forward to seeing you!
