Good Afternoon Tiger Families,
I hope everyone had a good weekend. We are looking forward to another great week of learning and fun for kids!
Thanks to all who came out to our Open House this past Thursday. It was wonderful to see all the smiling faces as students got to show their families their school and classrooms! They were so proud!
Walk-a-thon was a HUGE success! Kids had a great time walking and enjoying the beautiful weather. Thanks to all those who volunteered to help with the event! :) Thank you GSIA for all of your support of our wonderful school!!
