Welcome back!
This summer has been filled with the sounds of jackhammers, saws, and mechanical "white noise" here in the schoolhouse! The changes taking place in the library and in the new staff lounge are fun to watch - if not a bit loud . . . Thank you for your patience as we had to limit staff access to the building this summer. We recently had a bit of flooding in the Foothills (kindergarten hallway) and at each of the main entrances to the building thanks to the monsoon-like storm that rolled through the neighborhood on Monday, July 16th. So, for the meantime, we have added to the work crews in the building as they address clean up and drying out. Hopefully this means that the rain has already made it's memorable appearance for the start of this new school year and we won't be gathering kids during a rainstorm on the first day of school like last year! Keep reading for more updates and important information - I am looking forward to seeing you soon!
