From the Principal

Before we enjoy a long Labor Day weekend, I would encourage you to take some time to reflect on the past few months. While plans may have changed, we all learned lessons about flexibility and resiliency that will help us navigate the coming year.

Safety Notes:
Please help keep our school community safe by:
 
  • Wearing face coverings and maintaining social distance when on campus
  • Using the crosswalk when walking from the parking lot to the school building
  • Keeping students home when they are sick
  • Having students wear masks at school when they are coughing and or sneezing due to non-COVID related symptoms.
  • Donating Clorox wipes and alcohol-based hand sanitizers to school whenever possible!
 
Take good care and stay healthy!
