Principal's Note
Did You Know? Science Fair Winners Congratulations to this year's Science Fair winners!
Order Next Year's School Supplies We partnered with 1st Day School Supplies again to help parents get the supplies needed for next school year without the hassle and aggravation of shopping in stores. So, this summer as the temperature hits over 100° and lines at the checkout counter are a mile long skip the store and order your kit from the comfort of your own home. School supplies will be delivered to your child's classroom prior to the first day of school.
Reminders Kindergarten Welcome for Next Year Kindergartners May 16, we will have a Kindergarten Welcome event for the next fall kindergartners and their parents. It will be 3:00 - 3:45 p.m. If you haven't emailed your RSVP, there is still time to do so. Make sure you include your child's name in the email.
