Learning and playing don't stop when summer vacation starts, and neither does the need for good nutrition! 🏃‍♂️🥦

Let's make it a healthy, active summer!

This week, we were able to celebrate our scholars who achieved honor roll and those selected for Scholar of the Quarter. We love to recognize scholars who not only work hard in their academics, but also add to a positive school culture by being models of our EPIK values. We ended the year with 55% of our 6th-11th grade scholars receiving a 3.5 GPA or higher. That is amazing! We are so proud of them! ❤️🎉

💵💰Like to save money??? I know school is about to end, and nobody is ready to start thinking about next year, but we'd hate for you to miss out on such an amazing deal. Take advantage now, and your future self will thank you. 😁

This Memorial Day weekend, our Falcon family pauses to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. We are deeply grateful for the freedoms their courage secured, and we hope our community enjoys a safe, meaningful weekend of reflection together.

📌 Reminder: There will be no school on Monday, May 25th, in observance of the holiday. We look forward to seeing all of our Falcons back on campus on Tuesday as we head into our final week of the school year!
