Principal’s Update & Important Dates

Even in the midst of all this snow, we know that spring is not far away, so I hope you all have a wonderful and relaxing Spring Break. We hope you and your family have time to recharge and enjoy some sunshine filled days!

When we return on Monday, March 25th, we’ll be diving back into the final stretch of the school year. It’s a time to focus, learn, and push ourselves to achieve all that we’ve set out to do. Remember, we have the most incredible staff here to support you every step of the way. Let’s make these remaining weeks the best yet this year!
