As we move into February, winter has certainly made its presence known. Snow days, delays, and changing weather conditions have required flexibility from all of us, and we want to take a moment to sincerely thank our students, staff, and families for your patience and understanding.

We are proud of our students for remaining focused on their learning and maintaining positive routines, even when schedules have changed. Our staff has worked diligently to adjust plans, support students, and keep learning moving forward. To our families, thank you for your continued partnership, communication, and support as we navigate winter weather together.

As always, thank you to our dedicated teachers, staff, and families for your continuous support and partnership. We greatly appreciate your support and your communication. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.

February is a time to refocus, set goals, and keep pushing forward toward the second half of the school year. Together, we will continue to support our students’ growth!!!!

Students should have access to check their own Progress Book. Please direct them to their Advisory teachers if they need assistance.
