Thank you Quantum community, for your time, energy, and school spirit. You made this year’s Color Run one to remember!
It was awesome to honor so many Veterans and Active-Duty family members through our Wall of Honor as well as a slideshow. We even had a grandpa come and share some of his experiences with Mrs. Miromentes' class!
As the son and grandson of Air Force Veterans, I know first-hand the sacrifices that are made by those who serve as well as their families. Thank you to all of our Quantum family members who have served to protect our precious freedom!
Veterans Day is on a Tuesday this year. Therefore, there will be no school tomorrow, November 11.

Each Friday, we encourage our students and staff to wear their house colors and the class with the highest percentage wins house points that go towards winning the House Cup! Check out this photo from some of the "Atom Igniters" who showed tremendous spirit - some of the staff even purchased team jerseys to celebrate their team!
Let's see who shows the most spirit this Friday!
Our PTA recently purchased a new organizer for our lost & found which has made identifying lost clothing and items much easier! We have an amazing mom, Matilde Perez, who has stepped up to help organize everything and another incredible mom, Linda Bartlett, will be maintaining it moving forward. Thank you both!
Our lost and found rack is located next to the lunch tables so students have easy access it to it each day. Feel free to stop by the rack any time if you would like to look for any items that your child may have misplaced.
