Message From Principal Ludford
Dear Beaubien Families,
Welcome to the start of an exciting new school year! We hope your summer was full of rest, fun, and memorable moments. Our staff is working hard to prepare classrooms, and we cannot wait to welcome our students back to campus.
Ahead of the first day, we invite you to join us for Supply Drop-Off this Thursday, August 20th, from 4:00 PM to 5:30 PM. This is a great opportunity to bring in supplies and help your student feel ready for the year. Official classes begin on Monday, August 24th, with morning arrival starting promptly at 7:42 AM. Please refer to our Parent-Student Handbook for specific arrival and dismissal locations for each grade level so you know exactly where to drop off and pick up your child.
Additionally, our main office is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM to assist with registration paperwork, updated medical records, or any questions you may have. We look forward to a fantastic year filled with growth, learning, and strong community partnerships!
Warmly,
Michelle Ludford, Principal
Elizabeth McDonald, Assistant Principal
