February 2023 Newsletter
Message from Principal Lisa Langford
It is no surprise that reading is the first of the three R’s. This month we celebrate the Love of Reading. The ability to read and write is necessary to master other subjects and to communicate what is learned. Even more important, children who enjoy reading will continue to learn and grow throughout their lives. Reading is probably the most inexpensive and readily available form of education and entertainment. So, enjoy your library, make reading a habit and read aloud to your child.
Registration for the 2023-2024 school year has begun! All returning students please use your ParentVue account to register. Please let your friends and neighbors know how wonderful Collier is, we welcome students from anywhere in Tucson! We look forward to seeing some new faces and some familiar faces with siblings that will attend Collier next fall.
