October 2022
From the Principal
We have an exciting start to October with our Big Kahuna Fundraiser, College Week, and Picture Day this week! Then next week we have the Bookfair and Primary Night. On Primary night (more info below), we will also have family night at the book fair for any grade level.
Our Bringing Out the Best theme for October is Integrity. Students will learn the importance of acting responsibly and doing the right thing...even when no one is looking.
Best regards,
Laura Midkiff, Principal
