Principal's Message
It has been a wonderful return following the break. Though I appreciated the time for staff, students, and myself to unwind and recharge, I must say that I am thrilled to be back in the building! As I visit classrooms, I see our routines and rituals falling right back into place and students jumping right back into learning and growing. To help us all resettle into our routines, we re-teach our common area expectations for recess, lunch and walking in the halls during our first week back at school. In addition, 5th grade leaders sign off on our morning announcements by reminding all students, staff and visitors that being safe, respectful and responsible is the Wildcat Way!

Mensaje de la Directora
Ha sido un maravilloso regreso después del descanso. Aunque aprecié el tiempo que el personal, los estudiantes y yo tuvimos para relajarnos y recargar energías, debo decir que estoy encantada de estar de vuelta en el edificio. Cuando visitó las aulas, veo que nuestras rutinas y rituales vuelven a su lugar y que los estudiantes vuelven a aprender y crecer. Para ayudarnos a todos a restablecer nuestras rutinas, volvemos a enseñar nuestras expectativas de áreas comunes para el recreo, el almuerzo y el caminar por los pasillos durante nuestra primera semana de regreso a la escuela. Además, los líderes de quinto grado empiezan con nuestros anuncios matutinos recordando a todos los estudiantes, personal y visitantes de ser seguro, respetuoso y responsable porque ese es el Wildcat Way.
