๐ Message from the Principal ๐
It's hard to believe it's already going to be February this week! We will resume tutoring this week on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 3:20-4:20pm, as well as our first Saturday School of 2024 coming up this Saturday, February 3rd from 8am-12pm. Check out the flyers below for more details!
This will be an exciting week as a team from MVA and I will be visiting all of the 6th grade classes that feed into our school. We will present all of the awesome things that MVA has to offer and even give away some MVA swag! The best part is bringing our ASB members who are alumni to visit their former schools! Their former teachers love to see them and the feeling is mutual! See you soon Bayside, Berry, Central, Emory, IB Charter, Mendoza, and Oneonta 6th graders!! ๐ค
