U.I.L.
The U.I.L. Academic Program is designed to enrich student learning and provide students with a competitive opportunity. Students in 2nd and 3rd grades will have the chance to try out for our campus U.I.L. team in the coming weeks. A letter will be coming home the first week we return that will provide you details and allow you to nominate your child if you would like for him/her to participate in the tryouts. The events for 2nd grade are Chess Puzzle Solving, Music Memory, Storytelling, and Creative Writing. The events for 3rd grade are Chess Puzzle Solving, Ready Writing, Storytelling, Music Memory, and Spelling.

Building Leaders for Today - Habit #3: Put First Things First
Putting First Things First means deciding what is most important and taking care of that first. This is such an important life skill for both our students and for us as adults. Modeling this behavior is one of the best ways for us to teach this skill to our students. If you would like more information on how to support your child in becoming a leader please click here.
