The Week of November 13th The Week of November 13th

Thank you!

Thank you to the PTA for all the work you are doing to plan Family Restaurant Nights, Holiday Events, and a Family Dance!


Thank you to Mrs. Creamer for ordering and delivering all the new spirit wear! I would also like to thank Mrs. Creamer for the ongoing work she is doing for our 2023/2024 Yearbook!


Thank you to Mrs. Barry for taking the lead on our Celebration of Cultures, which will take place on Thursday, February 15th. Please see the flyer below for information. We are hoping for lots of collaboration with families so that all our unique cultures can be properly celebrated!


Thank you to all who attended our SIT meeting on Thursday!


Thank you all for adhering to our arrival system, which is described below.

Arrival (K-5)

We have been working with the NP officers to improve our arrival system. Beginning on Monday, the front door drop off line will only be for students who can exit the vehicle on their own, and this should be from the right side "passenger side" of the vehicle. If you need to walk your child in, please pull up and park next to the steel fence in the parking lot.


Thank you for your cooperation!
