Dear Families,
Happy October! We are now fully settled into the school year, and it has been wonderful to see our students engaged in learning, building friendships, and showing their best each day. Thank you for your partnership in helping to make the start of the year so successful. October is a busy and exciting month at our school. As the seasons change, we will celebrate learning with special classroom activities, seasonal projects, and community events.
Attendance continues to be a priority. Every day in school makes a difference in your child’s growth and success, and we appreciate your commitment to making sure students are present and on time. We also encourage you to continue supporting your child at home by setting aside time each evening to read together, practice math facts, or simply talk about their day. Small moments of learning at home help build strong foundations for the future.
