Upcoming Event: Calendar Change
Date/Time: February 22
Who it impacts: All Students
Overview: The calendar has us taking the day off on February 22 for teacher inservice (professional development). In the last month, our conference arranged the event we attended on January 19th, so we have switched these two days out. That means that we will be in school in February 22. Please change your calendar accordingly. If parents have already made arrangements to take their child(ren) out for the day and those arrangements can not be changed, we need them to contact the office to have the day excused. Otherwise, we are expecting all students to be in class on this day. We try to set our calendar a year in advance, and when changes like this need to occur, we are grateful for the understanding and the flexibility of our school families.
