Dear Parents and Guardians,

I hope this message finds you well! We are thrilled to announce an exciting week ahead as we celebrate our students’ reading and good behavior achievements.

This week marks our Accelerated Reader (AR) celebration, where we recognize our students' hard work and dedication in improving their reading skills. We encourage you to engage with your child about the books they’ve read and celebrate their progress together!

On Friday, we will hold our Fab Friday celebration for good behavior. This is an excellent opportunity for us to acknowledge and reward students who have demonstrated positive behavior throughout the school year. It’s essential to reinforce the importance of making good choices, and we appreciate your support in this effort at home.

To top off the week, we will have Kona Ice! This special treat is a fun way to celebrate their efforts and achievements. Please have all monies in by 7:30 am on Friday.

Thank you for your ongoing support and encouragement. Together, we are fostering a love for learning in our children. Let’s make this week one to remember!

Warm regards,

Will Zwingmann, Ed.S.

Principal
