Dear families,
What a wonderful night we had at our Annual Spring Fun Festival on Friday!
It was truly heartwarming to see so many of you there—your smiles and laughter filled the school and made the evening unforgettable. We are so grateful to everyone who made this event possible.
A heartfelt thank you to our sponsors, volunteers, and community members—your support and dedication mean the world to us. We couldn’t have done it without you!
Katie Jay again made the evening memorable by catching so many great moments throughout the night. Some of the pictures have been included in this update, but the complete file can be found here!
This week includes our first 2 days of Ohio State Testing with 4th and 5th taking their ELA OST on Tuesday and Wednesday. We wish them the best as they have worked so hard to prepare.
Lastly, there is no school on Friday. We wish you the best over the holiday weekend with friends and family!
Best,
Christy Grandstaff
Please make sure that all appointments are scheduled around these dates as it is difficult to get all makeups done with lots of absences.
