The PTA Jog - A - Thon was an amazing success! The sun was shining and the field was decorated to inspire our Dolphins with HEART! Thank you so much to all of the volunteers that helped make the event possible. And thank you to all the families that showed up to cheer on our joggers! Check out the pictures below to see our amazing Dolphin runners. We are so proud of their efforts! It is not too late to make a donation! You can still make a flat donation or a donation based on the number of laps a student completed...we appreciate your support!


Join us this Wednesday for a Black History Month Family Event. You are welcome to come on campus in the morning to visit your child's classroom. Each classroom will be highlighting their Black History Month learning and engaging in a Read Aloud of Change Sings by American poet and activist Amanda Gorman. After the read aloud students and families will work on a hand print art activity. Later on we will put all of the handprints together to make mural our school community can enjoy. We hope to see you there! If you cannot make it we included a video of Change Sings below that you can enjoy at home.


Say CHEESE! Don't forget this Friday is Spring Picture day!

2024 Black History Month

2024 Black History Month

Understanding Black history is integral to understanding the history, issues, and the future of our country. One of the founding documents of this country, the United States Declaration of Independence, held that "all men are created equal." However, the long history and the impacts of enslavement, segregation, and redlining are still felt today.
