WOW—What an Incredible First Day of School!
It was such a joy to see all of your bright, excited faces and to welcome so many new friends into our school family. The energy in the building was absolutely electric!

Parents—thank you! You did an amazing job getting your children here on time. We had very few tardies, which is almost unheard of on the first day. What a fantastic start!

We also appreciate your patience during afternoon dismissal. We know carline can be a bit slow at first, but we promise it will get smoother and faster each day. Please remember to have your QR Code ready to scan and help your child learn their Car Tag number, it really helps us move things along.

We can’t wait to see you all bright and early for Day 2. Let’s keep the momentum going!

AARRGH YOU READY?!
Thank you to everyone who came to Meet the Teacher today. We appreciate your patience with the road construction and parking delays. Parents are welcome to walk their child to their classroom on the first day of school, Mon. Aug. 11th. We ask that all adults exit campus by 7:40am so our teachers can begin the day with their classes at that time. We can't wait to begin the new year! See you Monday!
