WOW! What a week!

Ask your child about the SCIENCE assembly provided by the PTO.  It was so much fun!  We had a blast on Wednesday.  

The Orchestra Concert was amazing on Wednesday Night and toes were tapping at the Band Concert on Thursday.  Congratulations to Mr. Duggan and Mr. Craw on wonderful evenings.  Students - I am so impressed with your magical music making.  You filled my heart!  

How low can you go?  We limboed the day away on Thursday.  It was so fun to laugh and smile on our way in and out of school. ABC Countdown continues to be a blast!  Keep checking the Principal's Message so your child can participate in the fun!  


Family Reminders!

As the year comes to a close (sniffle, sniffle), we just wanted to remind you of some very important things to help keep our kiddos safe:
  • Please do not drop your kids off at school before 8:10.  We do not have supervision until that time and would not want anyone stuck outside or in the vestibule.  
  • If you are dropping your kids off, please walk them to the front door to make sure that they get in the building just fine and that there is staff here.  This is referring to kids that are late (or happen to be here before 8:10) and do not come through the morning drop-off door.  We would hate for someone to be left here on a non-attendance day.  
  • There are ticks outside living off of our beautiful land.  Check your kids each night and teach your children to brush themselves off after being outside.  We have been working to teach them at school as well.
Thank you so much for all of your amazing support all year long!  You help to make this a great place for kids!

BEST TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK EVER!

Holy Moly!  The staff has never felt more revered, honored, pampered, and appreciated!  

Thank you, thank you, thank you to all of the parents that put so much time, energy, and effort into this great week.  Your children are the reason we come to school each day, however, the extra boost made this week especially fun.  

We love our partnership with the parents of the community and had a wonderful time celebrating with you this week.  

Our hearts are so full!  We cannot thank you enough for the best week ever!
