🚧💨Due to concerns with the projected extremely high wind event, there will be no school on Thursday, March 12th. Forecasts are calling for wind gusts in the 70+ mph range, and these conditions would make it unsafe for school buses to be on the road. Parent/Teacher Conferences will still be held as scheduled. However, if you are able to move your conference time to an earlier time in the day, please contact your child’s teacher or the school office to make those arrangements. Staff will report at 8 AM. Thank you for your understanding as we prioritize the safety of our students and staff.

Strawberries are scheduled to arrive on Monday, February 23rd. As soon as they are delivered to the school, we will make sure they are distributed to your children’s classrooms.
For larger orders, we kindly ask that parents pick them up at the school. This helps us avoid loading large order onto the buses.
If you have any questions, please contact Steph Stricker or the school office.
