April 21, 2023

From Mrs Tennenbaum

I want to say "Eid mubarak" to all of our Muslim families who are celebrating Eid al-Fitr.


As we round out the year with only about a month of school left, we still have a lot to accomplish. We have state and local assessments to see how much our students have grown academically. We have some fun activities planned as well to celebrate an awesome school year! We need to ensure that all students are ROARing each and every day following our expectations so that they can participate in the fun that is being planned. Please encourage your students to stay engaged, be a good role model and do their best!
