Announcements!
Keep showing up on time and encouraging your kiddos to come to school ready to learn every day!
Parents and Guardians: Please do not allow students to bring toys to school. They can be distracting, or they can go missing which then causes unnecessary distractions and concern.
**Be looking for your child to come home with a QR code for Class Dojo. This is how teachers and parents will communicate!**
