Principal's Update
We began this week with Dress Like a Book Character Day. Thank you to the many students and staff who participated! We had an excellent Partners in Education meeting Tuesday. Notes from the meeting can be found here, and the family council will meet next on April 13th right after school to further plan Teacher Appreciation Week. Closer to the date, I will send out a Google Meet link for anyone who is able to join us virtually who otherwise could not.
Be on the lookout for report cards, which will go home Monday. Wednesday is a half day of school. Dismissal will be at 11:05am.
There are many new events in the Important Dates section. Please check out the amazing things coming up in the schedule!
As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please drop me a note at
