Picture Day
Picture Day is coming up on Tuesday, October 27th!
Please make sure your child comes dressed for their photo and ready to smile.
Halloween
Halloween is just around the corner, and students are welcome to wear costumes on October 30th to celebrate! To help keep the day fun and stress-free, we kindly ask that costumes do not include accessories, as these items are often misplaced. For those who prefer not to dress up, wearing orange and black is a great way to join in the festive spirit. Let’s make it a safe and spirited day for everyone!
Lost and Found
Are your closets looking a little bare lately? Our school’s Lost and Found bin is currently overflowing with sweaters, jackets, lunch boxes, and water bottles.
Before you head out to replace missing gear, please remind your children to stop by the hallway bin to check for any items that belong to them. Working together, we can reunite these lost items with their rightful owners before the pile gets any higher!
