Message from Principal Higgins

Dear Academy Families & Friends,


We had a great week last week. It was incredible to start the 5th grade transition process as well as welcome home the Seniors. It seems like just yesterday they were fourth graders crossing over the middle school. We wish them the best as they make their way to the spaces and places beyond WPS. Don't blink....it happens way too fast!


Speaking of the future, if you have not completed the parent placement survey, please click on the button below. There is also a button to sign up to help support field day! Also remember to check below for updates and links to various activities and events. Field Day is Thursday, June 9th and the Fun Run is on Friday, June 10th (as long as the weather cooperates). All borrowed library books are due back to the library as the countdown to summer continues. From here until the last day of school, there are so many great events, we want to make sure you are ready and in the know!


Enjoy the rest of your weekend and thanks for all of your support,


Mr. Higgins

Principal
