Administrative Professionals’ Day

Administrative Professionals’ Day is April 22, and we would like to take a moment to recognize our incredible office staff. Their dedication, organization, and daily support help keep our school running smoothly. From assisting families to supporting staff and students, their work does not go unnoticed. We appreciate all that they do for our school community.

Menchie’s

Join us for a fun and tasty PTA fundraiser at Menchie’s on April 23rd! A portion of the proceeds will go toward supporting school programs and events. It's a great way to treat your family to some delicious frozen yogurt while supporting our school. We hope to see you there!

Fire Drill

We will be having a scheduled fire drill on April 24, at 11am to help students and staff practice what to do in case of an emergency. This drill is an important part of keeping our school safe and making sure everyone knows how to evacuate calmly and quickly. Please remind your child to listen carefully and follow directions during the drill

3rd Grade Family Day at Lunch

We’re excited to welcome families to join our 3rd grade students for Family Day at Lunch on April 24 from 12:05 to 12:25. Please plan to arrive about 15 minutes early to find parking and to check in. As a reminder, we ask that you avoid bringing soda, red or blue chips, or energy drinks to help maintain a healthy environment for all students. A flyer with details was sent home last week.

CAASPP Testing

CAASPP testing for students in grades 3 through 5 will take place from April 27 to May 15. To help students do their best, please ensure they get a good night’s sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and come to school on time. We kindly ask families to schedule any medical or other appointments outside of school hours or after May 15, when testing ends, as it is very important for students to be present every day during testing. Thank you for your support!
