Good afternoon Kindergarten Families, Tomorrow, Friday, 9/9/22 we will recognize Patriot Day to honor and remember those impacted by the events of September 11, 2001. We encourage all students to wear Red, White, and/or Blue in observance of this day. Thank you!

Dear Families, Today we practiced our very first fire drill! Each class followed an exit route and waited quietly with their teachers outside the building until it was safe to go back inside. We will be practicing fire drills throughout the school year. Please talk with your child about their fire drill today. Estimados Padres y Familias, ¡Hoy practicamos nuestro simulacro de incendio! Cada clase siguió una ruta de salida y esperaron en silencio son sus maestros fuera del edificio hasta que fuera seguro para regresar adentro. Estaremos practicando simulacros de incendio durante el año escolar. Hable con su hijo sobre su simulacro de incendio hoy.

Attendance is WILDLY IMPORTANT! As we embark on our new school year with wildly important goals ( WIGS) set, we encourage all learners to understand that attendance is a lead measure in reaching success. Start off in the right direction and attend school every day ( and on time!). We look forward to each and every learner achieving their goals. Dr. Pedersen

Good afternoon Kindergarten Families, Please be reminded that if your child will be a WALKER we need a signed note indicating that your child will be a walker and will NOT be going on the bus.
