Principal’s Message
This school year is off to a great start! The 1st Six Weeks will come to an end on Friday, October 6th and with it you will be receiving not only report cards but diagnostic reports for Reading and Math.
Please help us by encouraging your son or daughter to log on at home to Imagine Math and Language and Literacy or to Istation. If we work together, our students will surpass any academic challenge!
Attendance is crucial for student success. Every student is important, so we want to see them on campus daily and actively learning with their peers and teacher to ensure that they are receiving the best education possible.
The month of October has exciting events not only for our students but for you as parents as well. We hope to see you at all the functions our school has coming up! Have a SPOOKTACULAR month!
Sincerely,
Mrs. M. Lopez
