Leader in Me Family Night

Thank you to our staff leadership team who planned and facilitated our Leader in Me Family Mission Statement Night last week. We had over 90 people in attendance and  families had an opportunity to develop their very own family mission statement. It was a fun and productive evening for all. We hope to see you at our next Leader in Me Family Night during the third quarter!

Attendance Matters

Consistent school attendance is critical for all students. Thank you for your continued support in sending your child to school on time every day.

Last week we had 89.24% attendance. Our goal is to increase our average attendance to 96%. Let’s do our best to continue to work together to keep our students healthy and at school for the next two weeks leading up to winter break.
