Thank You Support Staff!
This week was Support Staff Appreciation Week. We are so lucky to have a dedicated team of lunchroom supervisors, education assistants, library assistant, facility operations and office staff! This group of people goes above and beyond for our school every day!

Family Cultural Night
Thank you to all of our school community members for attending our 3rd annual Family Cultural Night last week! What an outstanding example of belonging and connection at our school! Check out some pictures of the festivities on Instagram!
Safety Drill
Today we had our 4th fire drill of the school year. All of our students exited the school quickly and quietly and teachers accounted for all students within minutes. Great job! We have 2 more fire drills for the year and will plan them for nice days in May and June.
Late Pick Ups
Recently we have had an increase in the number of students who are being picked up late after school. Please remember that there is no childcare after school. Please take a moment to review our school's attendance policies and procedures. Attendance
