Kindergarten Students spent this past week learning all about Thanksgiving and what it means to be thankful. We wrapped up our learning with a special KinderFeast, enjoying a fun variety of snacks together!

Our 4th graders have spent the past few days in reading practicing their lines and preparing short Reader’s Theater presentations to share with the class. We’re so proud of the effort and teamwork they put into their plays—such a fun way to wrap up our short week! 🎭📚✨

Dear Parents and Guardians,

As we move further into a busy and active school year, we’d like to share a friendly reminder to help keep our building safe and supervised after school hours.

🔹 Students in the Building After School
Once dismissal has ended, students should only be in the school building if they are participating in a scheduled sport or activity.

🔹 Athletes Must Have Coach/Advisor Supervision
Athletes may remain in the building only when their coach or advisor is present. Students should not be waiting, hanging out in hallways, or staying in the building unsupervised before practices or games.

These expectations help us ensure that all students are safe, supervised, and where they need to be at the appropriate times.

Thank you for your cooperation and continued support in reinforcing these guidelines with your child!
