We had a great week celebrating our teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week! I hope you felt all the love and gratitude you deserve! A special thank you to our PTO for all they did this week to honor our teachers!
National Nurses Day - Wednesday
Wednesday is National Nurses Day and we would like to thank our school nurses for the incredible job they have done this year under the most challenging circumstances. They have been absolute rock stars! I know we could not have stayed open this year without their careful consideration of every situation during this pandemic. Thank you for all you have done and continue to do for our faculty, staff, and students!

Our 5th Grade Extravaganza is Friday at Faith Community Church. Fifth grade teachers will remain with their homeroom class throughout the event. Masks will be required, with frequent mask breaks. Teachers will walk students to and from Faith through a trail cleared by our PTO (do not walk near Highway 11). We will come back to the school for our final outside activity at 2:30. (K-4, please do not take your students out to recess after 2:30.)
Please remember: We cannot invite parents due to our no visitor policy this year. We are so excited to be able to have this event, but must adhere to all health and safety guidelines currently in place.
Fifth grade teachers: there will be a dunking booth (for students to dunk faculty), so if you would like get in please make sure you bring a change of clothes (but of course this is optional).
A portion of our staff will be needed for the extravaganza so we will have a modified schedule for K-4, which will encompass an hour of PE/Field Day, but no specials (see below).
