Please note two important changes below:
- Our morning drop-off window is now longer: 7:30-7:45 most days!
- Our Curriculum Night is now earlier: 5:30pm so as not to conflict with GBS
Also, two important health and safety reminders:
- Masks are mandatory on busses. Please remind your children of this.
- Children should not come to school with any COVID-like symptoms or with a pending COVID test.
It has been wonderful having the students back for the first week of school and everyone seems to be getting used to the new routines! Kids really seem to enjoy having full access to our playground at recess and being able to see some friends from other classes. Academics have now started more formally and we are excited to get everyone back in the school mindset!
See you all at Curriculum Night!
