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!
