Our School Tours
We are in the middle of hosting school tours for prospective parents this month, but we also showed off our beautiful building and amazing Shark Family to our SDPC Finance Department this week.
Ms. Moore
This week we celebrate School Counseling Week! Ms. Moore has created a program that is that goes above and beyond! She engages our students in lessons, meets their group and individual needs, and works with our community partners to ensure all stakeholders are valued in our school family!
We are so excited to open our 2025-2026 Magnet Applications K5-5th grade! See our video below highlighting what makes our school different with a STEM Magnet focus! Here is the link for applications: https://bit.ly/MASTchoice
