Mustang Roundup
September 2018
Principal's Pen
Our school year has started off great! We are so happy to see our students, families, and the community return to our school for another great year! On Friday, August 24 we kicked-off the year with an exciting celebration to honor the official 10 year marking of our school opening in August 2008. We were able to capture 500+ students and staff in a school-wide picture thanks to Lesslie Fire Department that brought over a fire truck and a very tall ladder! Our students engaged in different activities based around the number "10" throughout the day. What would a celebration be without a little cake So, of course we served cake to the students that could have cake. What an awesome day it was!
We have many exciting events taking place this school year. I want to personally encourage all of our families to get involved. We understand that our success as a school depends on us working together to do what is best for students. As always, if you would like to speak with me about anything, please call, email, or stop by. I want to see you at our school!
Children First,
Dr. Barnes
