Principal Notes
Dear Parents,

Next Monday, September 28, we will post the new schedules for classes beginning on October 5. You can find them in the Portals. Please reach out if you have any questions.  

Mark your calendars for Friday, October, 23 when we will have our Pumpkin Patch and Halloween costume celebration. We will be sending out a sign up genius for times for your children to wear their costumes and come to the Pumpkin Patch. 
Pumpkins will be available for purchase and we’ll have a few other fun Halloween things. More information to follow but mark your calendar and wait to buy your pumpkins!
