A New Space!
We are excited to celebrate our new courtyard, a beautiful space designed for students to learn, connect, and enjoy the outdoors. Made possible through the work and partnership of Willmeng Construction, the courtyard can also serve as an outdoor classroom, providing new opportunities for hands-on learning and collaboration.
We are incredibly grateful to Willmeng Construction for helping bring this vision to life and creating a space our students and community can enjoy for years to come.
1. A strong school year is built one school day at a time.
When students are here consistently and arrive on time, they are able to begin the day with their classmates, participate in instruction, build relationships, and stay connected to classroom routines.
The first few weeks are especially important because so much of what students are learning right now is not just academic. They are learning:
Where do I go?
What happens next?
How does my classroom work?
Who can I ask for help?
Where do I belong?
Being here helps those routines become familiar. Families can help by building enough time into mornings for students to arrive calmly and ready to begin.
Every day matters. Every minute matters. Starting strong begins with showing up.
2. Need a Rule? Check the Handbook! Dress code, attendance, safety procedures, school expectations, and other policies are available on the school's website. Families do not need to memorize our Parent and Student handbok, but we do want everyone to know where to find it when questions come up.
3. Parent Teacher Conferences: We are looking forward to connecting with families during Parent-Teacher Conferences on September 23 and 24. This year, parents and guardians will sign up in advance for a 15-minute appointment with their child’s classroom teacher. Scheduling individual appointment times will allow our teachers to have meaningful, focused conversations with each family while ensuring that we are able to meet the requirements outlined in SB 241. More information about how to sign up for a conference time will be shared soon. We appreciate your participation and look forward to seeing you!
