Veteran's Day!

Our Halloween Parade is tomorrow. Students are invited to wear their costumes all day, unless it is inflatable. No gore, no excessive blood, no weapons, and no masks or full face paint. Teachers will help any student who needs additional minor help with a costume. The Parade is at 1:47 on the Playground. Please enter through the gates on 1st Street at the northeast corner of the school property. Student checkout will be on the playground if you wish to take them home early.

Parent Teacher Conferences are tomorrow. There will be no Kindergarten, and school will release at 12:45. There will be no Boys and Girls Club tomorrow, if your child attends Boys and Girls Club please make sure they know how they will be going home.

Treat Sale and Spirit Day are Tomorrow! Bring a dollar to buy a donut!

A quick reminder that there will be no Kindergarten on Thursday, October 23rd, and all other students will be released at 12:45 P.M.

Our Director of Transportation experienced very difficult personal circumstances this summer that delayed bus route setup. She will be back on duty tomorrow, Tuesday, September 2, 2025.

We’re deeply grateful for our staff and community who stepped up to keep students safe and supported. Moving forward, we are working to prevent disruptions like this in the future. Thank you for your continued understanding, kindness, and teamwork.
