From the Principal

OUR FUTURE'S SO BRIGHT,
WE GOTTA WEAR SHADES!

I am so excited that we are off to such a wonderful start for the new school year. Thank you to our students and staff for making this possible. I also want to thank our parents for working with us through some new rules and safety procedures. Dismissal is getting quicker each day, and will continue to do so.

I need to say a special thanks to our CEP/PTO. They provided the funds for the covered walk way in the back of the building to our mobiles. It looks great and will be wonderful for our students. Also, they provided new t-shirts for our staff, a welcome back lunch, and $150.00 per teacher to spend on supplies for their class. Every year, parents ask What does CEP/PTO do with the money we raise? The above are a few wonderful examples.

This years fall fundraiser will be used to put Leveled Text Libraries in each teachers class. Please come to our Code RED Reading Rally on September 9^th from 67pm. to learn more about this program and the ways it will benefit our students.
