We had so much fun with our PANCAKE AND PAJAMA DAY today! Thank you to those who turned in reading logs for summer! Our next Reading party is coming soon - please make sure your child is reading at home and filling in minutes on reading calendars.


Next Friday is a no uniform day and Fit & Fun Friday. Students in some grades will be going off school grounds on a nature walk.


Students and staff participated in a school evacuation drill this week as part of our safety training. We will continue to teach about school safety while at the same time trying to maintain their innocence as much as possible. Our goal is to help them understand what to do in all types of emergencies. We also try to keep discussions age appropriate. Preschool students who attend mornings only will learn more this coming week about safety.
