If you have a child who has not yet registered for Kindergarten next year, or you know someone who has a child who hasn’t yet registered, please be advised that our registration is open.  It’s important that we have families register early to avoid late changes to class configurations as we plan for next year.

Kindergarten orientation will take place June 9 from 1:00 – 2:00 pm. We are inviting new families and their child to join us at this time. They will have the opportunity to meet some of our staff, tour the school and pick up a welcome package. An email has been sent to students that are registered for next year with further information. Please call the school if you would like more information.

Monday September 20 Pro-D Day – Students do not attend. We will see you on Tuesday!

The September newsletter is available online. All monthly newsletter will be posted on our website and sent to your email addresses on file. We encourage parents/guardians to find the electronic version. We will be limiting our paper copies this year. Have a wonderful weekend.
