Even though National Librarians Day was over the weekend, we couldn’t let it pass without celebrating our two amazing librarians! 📚✨

Thank you for inspiring a love of reading, helping our students discover new worlds, and keeping our library a welcoming place for everyone. Your dedication, creativity, and care make such a difference in our school every single day.

We appreciate you more than words can say—today and every day! ❤️📖

🍫✨ Sweet Treats for a Great Cause! ✨🍫

Our chocolate fundraiser is still going strong, and we need your help to reach our goal! Every box a student sells makes a BIG difference—not just for our school, but for the student too! 🙌

🎯 The more you sell, the more you earn!
Each box gets students closer to some awesome prizes, including:
💳 Gift cards
💵 Cash rewards
🎧 Apple AirPods
…and so much more!

Even selling just ONE box helps move our school forward and supports all the great things happening for our students. 💙

Let’s keep the momentum going—grab a box, share with family and friends, and help us finish strong! 💪🍫

📚✏️ 3rd Grade Families – We Need You! ✏️📚

Next week is Interim Testing Week, and it is very important that our 3rd grade students are at school every day and on time. ⏰

These assessments help us see how much our students have learned and where we need to focus as we continue preparing for the remainder of the year. Being present and arriving on time ensures they don’t miss important instructions or valuable testing time.
