Principal Donner's Welcome Back
A Back to School Newsletter for 2024-2025
Dear Parents and Students,
Did you hear...
School starts in just 9 short days?
That means many of you are scurrying around for "just the right" back to school outfit or making endless lists for supplies, or like our family, trying to figure out "normal" sleeping routines before the mad rush to make it to school on time for the first day! However you are prepping for the school year, I hope you have been able to find time to enjoy the summer, soak up some sun, and make some memories! I can assure you I am ready to see the hustle and bustle in the hallways and excited for the return of our amazing staff and students!
Show up, Respect, Consistency
