A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRINCIPAL & ASST PRINCIPAL

 
.
 

Hard to Believe It’s December!

We wrapped up November on such a high note! The Great American Teach-In was absolutely AMAZING- over 90 speakers visit our campus to share their jobs, hobbies, interests, and life experiences with our students. A huge shout-out to Mrs. Tkacik, Mrs. White, and their incredible team for organizing such a memorable event!

We hope everyone enjoyed a relaxing week off to recharge and is ready to give their best during these final three weeks of 2025. The last month is jam-packed, so be sure to check the calendar and stay up to date on all upcoming events.

This week kicks off PM2 Testing for Kindergarten through 5th grade. Our students have worked so hard, and we can’t wait to see how much they’ve grown! You can help set them up for success by making sure they get:

✔ A good night’s rest
✔ A healthy breakfast
✔ Arrive at school on time—so they start the day calm and confident!

Let’s finish the year strong Lions 😊

 

Yo-ho-ho and onward we go!

Mrs. Meyer and Mrs. Moncrief
