Dear Families,
Wow! What a great turn out at the Back to School Picnic on Thursday evening. It was wonderful to see so many families come together to celebrate the start of the school year. Thank you to our PTO for hosting the event.
We had our first fire drill of the school year on Friday. The scholars and staff did an amazing job exiting the building safely in under 3 minutes. Way to go!
Just a reminder that our new arrival procedure for families that drive to school will begin on Monday, September 17, 2018. Please be sure to follow the procedure to ensure a smooth arrival for our scholars. (For more details, see the letter that was sent home earlier this week: Blue Zone Rules.pdf)
