Principal's Message
Our students continue to demonstrate being Safe, Kind, and Hardworking and we could not be more proud! We recently reverted our cafeteria space back to all cafeteria tables. Our students adjusted well to the new seating space and are enjoying more social time with their friends. We will be allowing visitors for lunch after spring break (beginning Monday April 25, 2022). Please note, at this time we will not be allowing younger siblings to visit at lunch, visitors should be adults only. If you would like to join your student for lunch, please check in at the front office to receive a visitors badge. We will have a "family table" set up for you and your student to enjoy lunch together.
We would also like to thank all of the volunteers who have give their time this year to support our school. The support provided in our library and all of the work needed for setting up for the art show has been very much appreciated.
Thank you for your continued partnership.
Kindly,
Sandy Fox
Principal

We are so excited to welcome families and friends back to our school for our first in-person program in 2 years!

The second graders have been working incredibly hard, and their show is going to be spectacular.
