Christmas Spirit Week The final week of school before the winter break is our Christmas Spirit Week! Take a look at the calendar below to see what is happening each day. The last day of school is December 21st! School will be back in session on January 7, 2019.
Parking Lot Safety This morning we nearly had an accident as someone drove down the wrong way in the parking lot! Please be patient and follow the rules. As well, please park and drop off your child(ren). When cars have to wait behind you as you let your kids out, it causes an unnecessary traffic jam and people get upset. There are plenty of places for you to pull over and let your kids out safely.
