From our Principal

Greetings! This month we are learning about the virtue of temperance. Please make sure you reinforce this virtue at home in your daily conversations at home.  Look out for interims in your child’s take-home folder this Friday. I encourage you to reach out to your child’s teacher for questions or concerns. Remember parent-teacher communication is the key to our children’s success. Thank you to all the parents who have been signing up and showing up for lunch and recess duty. There are many slots open for the coming months. Please consider signing up. I am looking forward to seeing all of you at our annual Trunk or Treat on October 25th. God Bless! Annie Fernandez
