Week of September 16th-19th

Super Moon week...

It is the last official week of Summer! Fall begins this Sunday and that hopefully will bring us some cooler temperatures. Fall also brings us our annual Fall Festival! Below is information about our Fall Festival. We will have plenty of games, food and fun for all! We hope to see you there! You can purchase your tickets at the office or at the door on the night of the festival. Thank you to all the families who have come out for Parent/Teacher Conferences. Reminder that tonight is our last night of conferences for the semester. If you haven't set up a conference yet, please reach out to your child's teacher so they can get you scheduled. Hopefully you all have a well rested weekend and we will see you ALL back at school on Monday!
