From The Principals…..
Happy Friday and Happy New Year!
We hope that all of you had a wonderful break! We were so happy to welcome back all of our students this week. It was great to see their smiling faces as they arrived.
The lost and found is overflowing with coats, jackets, water bottles and more. Please encourage your child to check it out on their way to recess to see if any of the items are theirs.
Please read all of the information below for important news and events. As always, reach out to us with any celebrations, concerns, or comments.
Sincerely,
Dr. Monroe and Mrs. Butz
