These last weeks of school are always busy. We met some amazing students and families at 3rd grade step up night. We can't wait to welcome them into our building next year.

Our testing week pancake breakfast days were a hit. Thanks to our Administrators for flipping pancakes! Students enjoyed snacks for each day of SAS testing as well.

We have been celebrating with ice cream parties and pizza parties. The Kona Ice truck came yesterday and every student and staff enjoyed a refreshing treat on us. We couldn't have asked for better weather for the day. We look forward to celebrating with our 8th graders next week at their cookout.

Thank you to all the families that have supported us throughout the year. We can't do this without you! As we look forward to next year, we are looking for parents to be part of the Parent Core Group so we can continue these fun activities and many more. Our meetings are once a month, usually the second Monday of the month. Please email us at: [email protected] if you have any interest in helping us support our students and staff next year.

We had a very busy week last week! To help ensure kids were ready for testing, we provided a pancake breakfast for each grade on their designated day this week. The kids really enjoyed seeing our administration flipping pancakes. Thank you! Each grade was also supplied with snacks for the week so kids could take a break between testing and recharge.

We will be wrapping up the school year with the Kona Ice truck, step up day, and 8th grade celebration.
