Thank you for the photos!

Thank you to all those who shared home classroom picture with us for accreditation purposes. These have been a tremendous help!

For those who have pictures they can share but haven't had the chance to send them in, we will continue to collect pictures for the next couple weeks. We ask that these home classroom pictures include both the co-teacher and student and not be obviously staged. You can send your pictures with a description of class, grade level, and activity to [email protected]

5-minute accreditation survey
You will soon receive an email with a link to a very short and simple survey.  This is a survey of the families for the accrediting agency. School leaders will not see individual responses, only the totals. The information goes straight in the accreditation agency's survey web site area. Having a high percentage of responses is important. 
Thank you in advance.
