A Message from Principal Mr. Castille


Hello Ogden Elementary Families,

As the leaves change and the air grows crisp, it's hard to believe we're already welcoming the month of November! This is a wonderful time of year to pause, reflect, and express our gratitude.


A Harvest of Learning

I am incredibly proud of how our students have settled into the school year. We've seen so much growth in the classrooms, thanks to the hard work of our teachers and the support you provide at home.

Please remember that the upcoming weeks are a crucial time to maintain strong routines. Consistent attendance and a dedicated 15–20 minutes of reading each evening are the best ways to keep the learning momentum going strong right up until the Thanksgiving break.
