Principal Message

Thank you to all of our fabulous volunteers who supported our Picture day on Tuesday this past week. We all were impacted by this excessive heat at school and home throughout the last week so we appreciate everyone's flexibility and positive attitudes throughout all of the high temperature days!

September 11th

In recognition of September 11th I want to take this opportunity to acknowledge the impact of the tragic event that happened 21 years ago today. Each year during this time I feel it is important to recognize the bravery shown that day and that valuable lives that were lost. Many emotions rise during this time of year for individuals and I ask that we are all mindful of how this day lives in history and continues to have a significant impact in our present. 

Parking Lot Etiquette

Thank you for not parking in our staff parking lot during morning drop off and afternoon pickup. Please be mindful and considerate that we do have some families and staff that need to access the parking lot at these times and need the use of specific handicap marked spaces. Please keep all of these areas clear of people and bikes. 

Board Updates 

On September 7 the Board met and celebrated recently tenured teachers/staff. Trustees approved the unaudited actuals, Board authorizations for teaching assignments, and the sufficiency of instructional materials. All agendas can be found here.

Kyle Shaw, Principal

Parking Lot Reminder
Our parking lot is for staff and for families of special needs children that need to park in their specific spots - please remember to not drive in or park in the lot or loop, we need to keep the area free for our dedicated parkers and for our walking students. Thank you!
