Dear Arete Families,
 
On behalf of our dedicated faculty and staff, welcome! We are spending June planning and preparing for next year. This preparation includes lockers, books, and sections as well as program planning - new student orientation, extracurricular opportunities, and team building throughout the year. We will be ready and excited to welcome your children to their new school this August.
