Have a great last weekend of summer!

We will see our Kinder-Second grade for their first day of school on Monday, and our whole school comes on Tuesday! 📚

The first two days are two hours early out! 💚

🎒✨ The 2026–27 school year is almost here, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone back! 🏫
Be sure to mark your calendars with our rolling start dates, and remember—there will be 2-hour early dismissals on the first two days. ⏰✏️

We’re looking forward to a year full of new friendships, exciting learning, and unforgettable moments. Let’s make it our best year yet! 📚🎉
