From the Principal
As we head into December, I want to remind everyone that the quarter ends on December 19. This is our final push before winter break, and we encourage students to take full advantage of our after-school homework help and math help sessions.
Please keep in mind that some student schedules may change when we return in January as new classes begin for the second semester.
We are also excited to continue our Christmas Giving Tree tradition through December 12. If you’d like to participate, simply place any donated gift under the tree in the front office. All items will be shared with Centerburg Interchurch to support families in our community.
As always, please reach out if there is anything you or your student needs. We’re here to support you!
