Parent Feedback
In order to get a better understanding of how best to engage our families, we are looking for parent feedback. Your responses will help our planning of family events for the 2025-2026 school year!
Last Day of School
Our last day of school is Wednesday, June 18!
Please note that dismissal is at 12:05 PM! NO Lunch will be served.
In the past, students have returned back to the school’s front driveway immediately following dismissal. Due to the nature of the craziness at the end of the school day on Wednesday and for safety reasons, we request that once students are dismissed through the easement, on bikes, or car pick-up, they do NOT return to the school grounds.
Thank you for your cooperation!
Summer Learning
Families will receive information on summer reading and math challenges on Tuesday next week. We ask that you encourage students to participate and keeping track of their learning. We will also be sending out reminders throughout the summer!
