The first full week of school is busy, hectic, and sometimes even a little crazy! We all deserve a little fun after the work we have put in this week! We hope to see all of our students, families, staff, and faculty at the FREE Back to School Splash! See flyer below for details!
Good attendance habits pay off! From PreK to 12th grade, 80% of success is showing up on time and being ready to learn! We ask our parents, families, and community to encourage and support our students as they strive to arrive! Strong Attendance=Strong Students!
