Welcome Back & Looking Ahead to 2026 – Important Pickup Reminder
Tiger Families,
Happy New Year and welcome back! We hope your winter break was filled with rest, connection, and a little fun. It has been so great welcoming our students back to campus and feeling that familiar energy return to our classrooms. As we step into 2026 together, we are excited for all that this new year holds—continued learning, growth, community events, and lots of great moments with our Tigers. Thank you, as always, for your partnership and for the trust you place in us each day.
As we move forward, I’d like to share an important reminder regarding after school dismissal. We kindly ask that families avoid changing their child’s regular method of pickup (car, bus, walking, or CASA) unless it is truly an emergency. While we absolutely understand that situations come up, last-minute changes are very challenging to communicate across campus and can sometimes lead to confusion or mistakes during dismissal. Keeping your child’s dismissal plan consistent helps us ensure a safe, smooth, and efficient process for everyone.
Thank you for your understanding and support with this—it truly makes a difference. We are looking forward to a fantastic year ahead and all that we will accomplish together.
Warmly,
Dr. Borgese
