A Great Show!
Each day I am able to witness the wonderful things that students do and participate in. This past Friday was no exception. I was able to see the fall play this weekend.....Defective Detective! It was outstanding! It always amazes me how talented our students are!

Student Safety is of the Utmost Concern!
I know that this was in the last edition - BUT, I can not stress this enough!!! The safety of all our students is first and foremost. I ask that all parents adhere to street signs and the rules of the road. Please do not double park or make U turns on Leonard or Evergreen; drive slowly and wait for students to cross the street. The parking lot off of Evergreen Ave is for staff and buses only, and should not be used as a drop off location. Again, the safety of our students is our number one priority.Thanks for adhering to these simple, yet important "rules of the road."
