Due to a water leak on campus, all afterschool activities have been cancelled today. If your child does not ride the bus, please make arrangements to pick them up this afternoon.
Thank you for your understanding as we work to resolve this issue.

Good evening,
This is Principal Modica with the weekly announcements.
Celebrations
We’re proud of our students for responsibly using the Yondr pouches and keeping phones put away all day—it’s helping keep our classrooms focused and distraction-free!
This week we had only a few minor discipline issues, and we appreciate our parents’ and guardians’ support in keeping our school orderly. Less time spent on discipline means more time for learning, which helps us reach our goal of moving up a letter grade. Thank you for being our partners in student success!
Upcoming Events & Important Information

All parents must stay in their cars during drop-off and pick-up to help the flow of traffic and ensure the correct people are picking up students.
Enter the campus at the entrance across from Dollar General.
Car riders drive around the building and drop off/pick up near the door by the playground.
Exit through the overflow parking lot.
The front driveway is for buses only—do not use it for drop-off or pick-up.
