PIC OF THE WEEK!

So Happy to be Reunited with our Friends!

Back to school means back to our buddies!

We had a great first four half days this week!

Thank you for your patience, as we allowed our students and teachers the ability to "ease in" to the reality of a new school year. While our soft opening can be a challenge for parents, our teachers and staff appreciate the short days in their hot classrooms! Each afternoon was spent preparing more fully with our faculty in our few air-conditioned spaces. 

We are grateful, thankful, and truly blessed.

Next week we welcome the youngest members to the fold, and there will certainly be more tears of joy and separation!

Have a great long weekend.

• Our dismissal procedure relies heavily on staggering the number of cars on campus, and patience! This week was unique in that we were sending all students home at the end of the half days! Next week we should see a bit of an improvement as Extended Care will be up and running! 
• Fundraising information sheet coming in Friday folders next week!
• Please send money for planners if you have not already done so, as well as any completed forms!
