We recently hosted our Title I event, "Soaring with Numbers - Math Day," and it was an overwhelming success! Our Eagles—parents, students, and teachers—came together to explore the world of mathematics. The day was filled with exciting activities. Together, we indeed soared into numbers! A big thank you to everyone who participated and made the day unforgettable.

Lights, Camera, Read! 🎬📚

Dear Parents and Volunteers,

We are thrilled to share that our Literati Book Fair, "Lights, Camera, Read!", was a tremendous success! This achievement would not have been possible without the incredible support and hard work of our dedicated volunteers.

Thank you for your time, energy, and commitment. Whether you helped set up, assisted students in finding their next great read, or managed the checkout process, your contributions were invaluable. We genuinely appreciate every one of you.

With gratitude,

Mrs. Lewis
