Dear Families,
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. First, I want to extend a huge thank you to our incredible PTO for hosting such a successful Scholastic Book Fair last week. Our students loved exploring the books, and we deeply appreciate the time and effort our volunteers dedicated to making this event a highlight of the season.
We have an exciting, event-filled few weeks ahead at our school. Please review the schedule below for upcoming activities, presentations, and special events:
