Families,
As we come closer to the end of the school year, students and staff are still busy teaching and learning. The graduating class of 2026 is transitioning to the larger community as lifelong learners and valued members of our school community. We wish them all the best!
Save the date, ESY is July 6-July 30, and the hours are 7:45-10:45am. Please reach out to your child’s teacher if you have any questions about ESY.
We wish you a great week.
