A Note From Our Principal ,

We had a wonderful summer but are thrilled to be kicking off a new school year with all of our families and students. Our teachers have been working hard all summer to ensure that this is a productive and fun year for each of our classrooms. To ensure that everyone is off to a great start, we’ve included some important reminders below. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Sincerely,

Kristi Polk
