Message from Principal Roskos

Week of 09/11/23 to 09/15/23

On this September 11th, we hope you all may take a few moments to honor those that we have lost 22 years ago.


We would like to thank all of our students, families and staff on a successful first week!


Our teachers will be diving heavy into content this week so please help us reinforce expectations of keeping cell phones/ear buds away during instructional time.


There are currently lots of clubs and activities getting started up so please encourage your students to review their options and get involved!


Lastly, we are going to start highlighting some student pictures in our newsletters so please ensure you scroll all the way down the communication!


Together we will make this a great year of teaching and learning!


Thank you for all you do to support our students as we prepare them for life! If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to reach out!


Thank you,


Principal, John Paul Roskos
