Principal's Newsletter: December

Dear Families and Community,


December is always such a joyful month on campus, filled with excitement, celebrations, and opportunities to come together. As we wrap up the calendar year, we appreciate your partnership in helping our students learn, grow, and model our core expectations. This month, we are continuing to focus on “Be Responsible.” Thank you for reinforcing this at home by encouraging students to make good choices, take ownership of their learning, and treat others with care.


Parking Lot Reminders – Help Us Keep Everyone Safe

One of the most important ways families can “Be Responsible” is by following our drop-off and pick-up procedures. Please pull forward, stay in designated areas, and avoid parking or stopping in the red zones. Your cooperation helps keep the process safe, efficient, and stress-free for all.


Holiday Spirit Week (12/15–12/19)

Our Student Council is spreading cheer with Holiday Spirit Week (flyer below)! It’s a fun tradition that brings the whole school together with creativity and smiles.


Winter Break (12/22–1/2)

School will be closed for Winter Break from December 22 through January 2. We wish all of our students and families a restful, safe, and joyful holiday season. We look forward to welcoming everyone back on Monday, January 5.


Thank you for your ongoing support and for being such an important part of our school community. December is a short but magical month, and we’re grateful to spend it learning and celebrating with your children.


Warmly,

Andrea Tapia

We’re excited to share that our Garden Club is growing! Each class will have the opportunity to meet monthly with our lead volunteer to learn and work in the garden. We’re looking for additional volunteers to help support these class garden sessions — either with your child’s class or any class that fits your schedule. All volunteers must be cleared through the district.
