3/28: No School for Students - Professional Learning Day
Thank you for taking the time to attend our recent Parent-Teacher Conferences. We truly appreciate your partnership and commitment to your child's education. Strong communication between home and school is essential to student success, and your participation helps us work together to support each student's growth and learning.
Mini K - Sign Up:
Our NFES sessions will take place over three days (3/26, 4/2 and 4/9) with three one hour time slots per day. It is an opportunity for our staff to meet with your child and get a sense of their literacy and numeracy skills, as well as their current social development in an informal classroom setting. It is also an opportunity for the children to meet some of their new kindergarten friends. Parents will have an opportunity to meet with the school nurse to review medical forms while your child participates in center based activities. There will also be office staff available to help with any questions with regards to registration paperwork. Please click on this link to sign up for a session.

Please Don't Block The Buses! 🚌
We have been having problems recently with drop-off and pick-up traffic blocking accessibility to the south (staff) entrance area, making it difficult for our buses to arrive and depart on time. This is a primary area for buses serving our students with special needs. ALL parent/guardian drop-off and pick-up traffic should utilize the main driveway, not this area. Thank you for your cooperation!
