We hope you and your family had a joyous and fun-filled winter break! Can you believe it… your child is only half a year away from middle school. We are excited to get back to work and make that final push in your child’s elementary academic career. As with any marathon, the last bit towards the finish line is tough – but this is where we turn it on! We look forward to amazing second half of the year in preparing all our students for middle school. Welcome back!
