The Falcon Flash
Welcome Back!
Principal's Message
It has been a great start to the year! The students have been amazing and it is great to have their energy back in the classrooms! Our staff hopes that you had a great summer and were able to find some time to relax and spend time with friends and family. This year is going to be an amazing year! We are excited to announce that the theme for this year is, Dream Big! We want to continue to encourage all of our students to dream big and work hard!
The students have already been involved with some fantastic opportunities. Students have joined cross country, basketball, book clubs, project-based learning, art, music, world languages, design work, programming, and of course math, science, social studies, and ELA. Teachers are in the process of preparing a survey to give to students. We do this to explore how our teaching and learning practices are being received by our students--and then adjust accordingly.
Have a great rest of your September,
Jason
