Middle School Info Session
There will be a middle school information session on Friday, November 21 starting at about 8:15am geared towards the parents of our current 5th graders who will be moving into our middle school in the next academic year. This session is taking place for you to learn more about our middle school curriculum and offerings prior to our admissions cycle for 2015-2016 beginning. You are highly encouraged to attend. Please RSVP if you are able to make it so we can make arrangements for space. |
Catalog Fundraiser
Our PTA distributed catalogs last week with exciting gifts you, your neighbors, your coworkers, or anyone can purchase to give to others. Each gift purchased will go directly towards the school so please participate! You may sell as much as you like all the way until Friday, November 21 when orders will be due.

Health and Safety Week
Next week is Health and Safety week. During this week, we will be conducting safety drills, inviting local dentists to talk about oral hygiene, having a police officer talk about safety to different age groups, inviting doctors to talk to our older students about their health as they are growing (more detailed information on this was emailed to 4th-7th graders' parents this past Monday), and our 7th grade health class will be engaging the school in some activities. We look forward to this fun, and of course safe, week with the students. Please be prepared to also emphasize safety in talks with your children at home, such as going over home evacuation plans, talking about fire safety, calling 911, and so on.
